Sorry to be nit-picky but "Miami" doesn't have a population of over 6 million people. That number is for the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach conglomeration. Miami alone has around 440,000. It doesn't seem like there are city boundaries where they are because they blur into other areas. That's true in many places, of course, but we typically distinguish between Los Angeles and Riverside in Southern California, and between Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe and other contiguous cities here in Arizona. It doesn't affect your point about the economic size of the area. As I said, nit-picky, but I can't help myself. Looking forward to your future posts.
