Anyone know where I can get a KML of US urban areas with a population of 15k+?

  • Doesn't geonames.org have something like this (for all cities over a given site and then reduce to just USA), or are you asking something different? Polygons?

Have you see Natural Earth Data Urban Areas? You can convert the .shp file to .kml with ogr2ogr -f KML ne_10m_urban_areas.kml ne_10m_urban_areas.shp.

Not sure about the population sizes that mark these as "urban" areas.
