"Not to be argumentative, but to compare:

Population of Montgomery County, MD = 927,583. Divided by 21 library branches = one branch per 44,170 people.

Population of Jackson County, OR = 195,322. Divided by 15 library branches = one branch per 13,021 people."

It is obvious that Montgomery County needs more librairies.
