Belle Glade and Pahokee Players

Incredible list of players born in this little community within Palm Beach County.
Population. Belle Glade 16,624, Pahokee 6598. 23222pop.

28 players-14 from each city.

The problem with comparing this area to the Monroe Area and Shreveport overall.
1. The Palm Beach County would qualify as an hour, but the population is over 1 million. They have too many people to compete overall.

These cities are special in Football but only had 1 other player in the NBA or MLB.
The total is 29 players.

Monroe is at 52 Total. 36 NFL 10 NBA and 6 MLB players within the city of 53000.

Football wise these two Florida teams are amazing. Overall, Monroe is crazy.

Mississipi data coming and it is ridiculous.

A little perspective on these insane numbers. The elementary school district where I live has roughly the same number of residents as Pahokee, FL. Can you even begin to imagine an area the size of an elementary school district with 14 NFL players from there?
