    More than 200 cities around the world are partially encircled by an eruv.

    Partially?

        In which case the city is not “partially encircled”, but “parts of the city are encircled”. Makes much more sense now.

      Yeah, they usually only put them up in neighborhoods with a large portion of jewish people since it has to be checked for contiguity before every sabbath. That alone limits how large a portion of the city you could enclose.
