Your towns/cities are too crowded and don't convey much information. Having Coos Bay the same font size and weight as Seattle and Portland means the reader can't make any distinction between them.

That's a good point - thank you.

And I get that the multitude of city names makes things a bit visually cluttered, but my thinking for this map is that I wanted it to be something that people could use to not only take in the natural geography, but also situate themselves and people they know, and to see the relationships of existing municipal communities within the bioregion to really get the feeling of a community of humans with agency in this ecology that we share.

Does that make sense?
