[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These tests have got to be BS.  if 100 is average, where are all the people who get below 100?[/quote]

There's some confirmation bias. Those of us who scored well don't mind answering the question. But also, let's not forget the demographics of the DC are and DCUM. We are more highly educated than the average, and the IQ test definitely shows privilege bias.[/quote]

That still doesn’t account for so many posters claiming genius IQs.   There’s a lot of competent people in the DMV, lots of government bureaucrats, policy makers, important work being done.  Definitely smart people but not to the point that so many poster are the geniuses they claim to be.

The smartest cities in the country aren’t  calculated by how many puzzles you can do or what books you read.  This one study analyzed 16 equally-weighted metrics (on a 0-100 scale) across three categories: connectivity and infrastructure, environmental sustainability, and the local tech job market.

Here’s where the brains are - 
Seattle
Miami
Austin, Texas
San Jose, California
Oakland, California
Boston
San Francisco
New York City	
Los Angeles
Atlanta

These are the cities the young smart people go. [/quote]
