Where I live in Norwich, England, there's a popular local expressions: "There's a church for every week of the year, and a pub for every day" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich#Architecture http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich#Architecture) - it sounds like there's just over 1000 pubs in Dublin, so we're slightly outnumbered there, although Norwich does have the highest number of pubs per square mile in the UK... Pubs Per Capita anyone?
- pbhjpbhj 15y ago>although Norwich does have the highest number of pubs per square mile in the UK... Pubs Per Capita anyone? This sort of claim seems to be quite common: http://www.guardian.co.uk/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-15637,00.html http://www.guardian.co.uk/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-1563... As a very quick and very dirty test yell.com gives 103 results for "pub" in "Norwich" and 101 in "St.Andrews, Fife". St.Andrews (pop 18k, I think that's when the Uni is in) is much smaller than Norwich (250k) - at most the former is 3km across and maybe 1km the other way, Norwich is roughly circular and about 10km diameter (from a quick look at Google Maps). However, yell probably just use a "within X km of the location" metric for returning results, so ... Someone at Yell could tell you with a couple of SQL queries no doubt.
