Community Corner: Which American cities could support multiple professional soccer teams?

Yesterday morning, the United Soccer Leagues announced that a new franchise led by David Villa was forming in Queens to play in the USL Championship. Queensboro FC will begin play in 2021 and play games at York College in Queens, as well as select games at Citi Field, home of the New York Mets. That is the same venue that just a few weeks ago hosted New York City FC, who normally plays at Yankee Stadium, in a MLS Cup playoff game. This obviously will be something to watch as the New York City metropolitan area attempts to sustain a 4th professional soccer team.
