This is Apple’s fourteenth Look Around release since the first Look Around images were published nearly two years ago in June 2019:
And it brings the total number of Look Around coverage areas to twenty-eight:
Eighteen of Apple’s twenty-eight Look Around areas are in the United States:

...and sixteen of the twenty largest U.S. urban regions:
(Dallas / Fort Worth is currently the largest U.S. metropolitan area without Look Around coverage.)

This latest Look Around release arrives 98 days after Apple’s last Look Around release on February 3, 2021. (On average, Apple has been releasing new Look Around areas every 49 days).
