Thanks. I was thinking urban areas over 500k population
If is correct it looks like North Dakota will be flooded with any survivors.
Most communications and the internet will be down. So just because it is a low population density does not mean that people will connect that to no nukes.
They'll also have to likely be on the side of the blasts that ND is since if you are south of a city and didn't get killed then are you going to go into a high radiation area on the chance that ND is doing fine.
They'll likely lose their grid to the EMP frying it and most unshielded electronics which means most modern cars might be fucked since they'll have fried computer chips from radiation.
Even if your not near a large city you'll likely lose your internet and cable company based phones, no weather reports, no nuke damage reports except maybe shortwave radio.

Learn you some morse, and get some comms equipment then.
I'd be bombing at least a million since the damage will extend far out past the blast engulfing the suburban area's in the lower pressure area of the blast but still enough radiation and damage from the explosion to the power structure and internet "controls food distribution" , fires, starving, blindness if you can see the light from a window or are outside.
I think just 2 nukes would wipe out the power grid since the EMP would travel quite far wiping out all infrastructure. Yeah just a few would fuck us to death.
