More then Half a Million People within 15 miles of Albany Pine Bush

I was looking at 2020 US Census data, and discovered that more then half a million people live within 15 miles of Albany Pine Bush Preserve. For over 45,000 New Yorkers, the Pine Bush is only a short walk from their homes, although some of the roads aren't exactly pedestrian friendly out that way.
