For a long time, St. Louis, Missouri was the most active city on YWS due to a number of active members hailing from that city. However, it is no longer the champ! That title now goes to Sydney! And coming in second? London. St. Louis now ranks as only third.

The entire top 10 are:

1. Sydney
2. London
3. St. Louis
4. Auckland
5. San Diego
6. Atlanta
7. Melbourne
8. Pine Grove
9. Irvine
10. Syracuse

This also marks the first time that a non-US city has taken the number one position, and it is worth noting that US cities now only occupy 6 out of the top 10 spots. What's interesting is the degree to which Australia is taking over the site. GO OZ!

Can't tell how many unique visitors from Toledo, but it comes in as #56 overall and #42 in the States.

Out of curiosity, do people from NSW in general get counted as Sydney, or not? I'm like six hours west of Sydney ^^

The only people that get counted are only those either inside Sydney or just outside the boundaries of the city. From what I can tell, there are at least three other cities in NSW where people come from.

Aw, man, how can I compete with Sydney? I live in a (relativly) small town. Oh, the delights of Florida :D
