- bluedino 13y agoIs there a big AT&T datacenter there or something? I've shown up as coming out of there on so many Geo-IP sites over the years, DSL, cellular, T1's...
- mculp 13y agoI'd wager it's just the geographical center of the US.
- sanderjd 13y agoAh! This makes sense. My first thought was "wow, impressive showing in St. Louis..."

The relevant project from the US government itself is here: https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger.html https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger.html You might want to run a simplifying algorithm on the shapes first though, they're the official boundary coordinates so there's an absurd number of points on coastlines and the like, making point-in-polygon lookups very slow. It has the stuff for doing your own geocoding as well. You can install it as a postgis extension and run geocoding SQL queries in postgres. It's an absolute joy.
