We ought to be comparing Antioch, with its population of 50,000, to cities of similar size. Upon review, we found that Antioch's community does seem underserved for the size of its population. Among cities in the 50,000 to 100,000 population bracket, the average number of facilities per city is 11. That's 7 more than we find in Antioch, and makes a good case for the claim that there's relatively-low storage space.
