Answer:

Allegany County is one of the most rural counties of the state of New York, located in the Upstate part of the state.

Allegany County only has 46,000 inhabitants, and a low population density of 46 people per square mile. The largest town in the county, Wellsvile, only has a bit over 7,000 people.

We can see then, that Allegany County is a predominantly rural place, where people live far apart from each other. In these kind of conditions, it's harder for a disease to spread, hence the low positive case count.

The Bronx is completely the opposite. A fully urban borough, with around 1,400,000 inhabitants, and a population density of 32,903 people per square mile. Besides, the Bronx is characterized by its low-income, socially-vulnerable population, who tend to work jobs where it is easier for the disease to spread (cleaning services, nursing, bus driving, etc).

This is why the Bronx has such a large number of positive cases.

Why isn't there a huge deep sea trench next to California like there is next to South America?
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Deep-sea trenches generally lie seaward of and parallel to adjacent island arcs or mountain ranges of the continental margins. They are closely associated with and found in subduction zones—that is, locations where a lithospheric plate bearing oceanic crust slides down into the upper mantle under the force of gravity.

Explanation:

"The result is a topographic depression where the oceanic plate comes in contact with the overriding plate, which may be either oceanic or continental. If the overriding plate is oceanic, an island arc develops. The trench forms an arc in plan view, and islands with explosive volcanoes develop on the overriding plate. If the overriding plate is continental, a marginal trench forms where the topographic depression appears to follow the outline of the continental margin. Explosive volcanoes are found there too"
