Also - most FM broadcast transmit antennas are arrays of several elements
in
a vertical stack to concentrate radiation in the horizontal plane. As a
result the radiation directed around the tower base is much lower than the
station's licensed power.

Right, but often times there are a large number of people living in high
rise buildings near the FM antenna. It's conceivable there are more people
living in a high power FM radiation area than a high power AM radiation
area.
