Is It Reasonable To Keep The House at 435 Members?

while 1 per 100,000 would be ideal on a local basis, I think maybe that should be the goal on the state level. Federally, a 1000 member Congress may be the most appropriate number (but no more than that)

Indeed.  The federal government shouldn't be more representative than the states.

You know what that's like.

WTF to California. 

State legislatures should operate more like national legislatures and in some cases (eg California) be more representative.  California should not have less state senators than members of congress.

In Canada, some cities have fewer councillors than MLAs, but no province has less MLAs than MPs. (Ontario has the same number, as they use the same districts)
