America's Rudest Cities

[The Brain]

Canadians in Stockholm?

[mongers]

Canadians in Stockholm?

That's why they pretend to be Americans, role-playing, otherwise it would be exactly like them staying at home, save for the flimsier furniture.

[Ed Anger]

A better statistical model could be built by analysing American Languish posters;

I'd hazard Baltimore and Dayton, Ohio (or wherever 'someone' lives) would be in the top 10.

It is Bellbrook motherfucker. I've made no secret of my town.

Lol, Daytone.

It's not exactly a well know place, hell it's probably smaller than my nearest large town and I'm not sure many Daytonites have either heard of it or could spell it correctly.

Dayton metropolitan area is about 840,000 people, so it's about 50,000 people ahead of Leeds.

I try to be rude to Americans in Stockholm.

Both of them?

They're all over the place with their fat and retardism.

I've only been there once!

This is the first time I've seen you mention it.  I remember I got such a reaction out of you when I accused you of being a Xenian I became convinced you lived there

You wounded me deeply. 

You could have said I was from Yellow Springs. That would call for a duel.

Sure you have.

You ever make it over to the Daytone 500?

[Ed Anger]

Well I have. 

[Caliga]

Freak dat ass out, Daytone?

It isn't an exact science and the way some US demographers do metropolitan areas would mean that Leeds be include all of West Yorshire and a fair bit more so substantially larger than Dayton.

Metro area is definitely hinkey. I mean Dallas and Fort Worth are not anything close to a contiguous urban entity but are often lumped together in one huge metropolitan area.

At the same time, sometimes cities are a lot bigger than they should be, so in some cases the metro area is a better reflection of the city size than the actual size of the legal jurisdiction.

The biggest city in Ohio for example is Columbus, by a long shot--it has almost 800,000 people (Cleveland is under 400,000 and Cincy is just under 300,000) but to my mind both Cincy and Cleveland "feel" more big-cityish than Columbus. Density bears it out, Cincy is 4200/sq. mi., and Cleveland is 5100/sq. mi., Columbus is 3500/sq. mi. At a certain point you have to question how valid a city's actual population is if the city has just grown preposterously large geographically. As a comparison Columbus covers something like 5 times as much area as Paris or San Francisco (actually combined, both of those cities are around 40 sq. mi. and Columbus is 200+.) Columbus has about 2/3rds the land of New York City's five boroughs but is about 10% of their population.

Also, highly amused that Anchorage made the top 20.

It's certainly not surprising.

I can see where Boston and Atlanta are so high up.

NYC, never had many "rudeness" issues; like Yi said, it's more indifference.  Everybody's doing their own thing.  DC?  Don't get that one.  Maybe on the beltway they are, but that's understandable.
