Wording

"The coastline of the Gulf of Maine is predominantly rocky and scenic; the only significant coastal developments are located in the Boston, Portsmouth, Portland and Saint John metropolitan areas. "

This sentence seems strange to me. I have no statistics, but I'd think the New England coast between Cape Cod and probably Portland is one of the more populated parts of any coast in at least America. Granted, we're supposed to have a world view, but compared to, say, the Southeastern US coast or the Pacific Northwest at least, this seems misleading. However, considering Northern Maine and Canada, and my own Hub-of-the-Universe world view, I figured I'd ask for input.
