What about similarly populated cities?
Oghi, Liangmatai, and Patherwa all fluctuated in its street-construction patterns in new street construction. For the full network, Oghi and Liangmatai both became progressively more disconnected, while Patherwa grew more disconnected from 1975 through 1976-1990, then improved. Notably, Oghi had a more connected network than Liangmatai in 1975 but the two have since reversed their relative ranking.
