    $664 million a year ÷ 7 million in NYC < $94.86/year per person in NYC

      The tweet says $664 per household. Not $664 million in total.

        Thanks for the correction. 🙂

        So let’s say $664 million/year ÷ (8.5 million people ÷ 3.4 people per household) = $265.60 per household per year.

        Let’s say $664 million/yr ÷ $100 000/yr per Amazon deliverers = 6640 well-paid Amazon deliverers in NYC.

        If NYC has 778.18 sq km of area,

        that would be 6640 ÷ 778.18 > 8.5 Amazon workers in any sq km of NYC, or < than 11.82 hectares of NYC per Amazon worker —assuming they all worked the same shifts.
