Subject: Using MAX with COUNT?

Hey all,
I have a table like this:
boroughID Area
========= ====
1 Chelsea
1 East Village
1 West Village
1 So Ho
2 Prospect Park
2 Brooklyn Heights
3 Prospect Heights
What I want to know is which boroughID has the most area's assocated with
it, and how many.
So I tried this:
SELECT max(count(*)) FROM `bsp_area` GROUP BY boroughID
...and got an "Invalid use of group function" error.
Anyone think of another way to do this in a single SQL statement, or some
other simple method?
