I expected maybe higher, at least ten percent higher.


You expected it to be 3.3%?

Well thats because the stats measure how many users are from there. They don't measure how often those users post.

On my work computer (not what I'm using right now), I use VPN and show up as one of those other major metropolitan areas.

Those are great stats for ad sales!


Coincidentally, ad sales are great

30% seems pretty low. You mean DC metro area or DC proper?

1. What makes a "native" anyway

2. What about those posters who grew up in the greater DC area and moved away? Are they not "natives"?

3. What about all the people moving to DC or who have lived here 5+ years?

You can't fish out these stats simply from IP locations.

I'm curious about this too. But I frequent the explicit forum and am naturally curious.

I often find that posters are not from the area, and I'm just curious if that is a stat you collect?
