Poll: Where are you currently living in the US?
Drilling down from the poll on current location to current location for the US. Based on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6583772
- himalayanelixir 13y agoNew Orleans, Louisiana
- ek 13y agoI see we are converging on "where do you live in the Bay Area", which is what I was disappointed the original poll was not.
- tedivm 13y agoI wonder how bias this poll is going to be by the fact that it was started at 12:30am on the West Coast, 3:30am for the East.
- ximeng 13y agoI'm hoping it will make it through to the morning Eastern and then be self-sustaining till the West Coast gets up. Thought it was better to post now while the worldwide poll is on the front page though the timing isn't ideal. Interesting that we've got three votes in from NY already.
- achalv 13y agoChampaign, IL
- moiety 13y agoChampaign, IL here as well.
- clarkbarz 13y agoDenver, CO
- gkhnarik 13y agoOmaha
- mcrider 13y agoHawaii
- personlurking 13y agoBorn and raised in the SF Bay but not currently there, nor in the US.
- shitlord 13y agoNo love for the Washington DC area? :( I've lived here since I was 10, and worked mostly in Maryland. Used to work in Silver Spring MD, then Hanover MD.
- bdunn 13y agoNorfolk / Virginia Beach area here.
- rajanikanthr 13y agobeen to ODU :) but I live in Seattle now
- davidw 13y agoBoston, New York, Chicago, SF, Ann Arbor. "Which of these does not belong in the list?"
- benatkin 13y agoAustin also doesn't belong, though it could belong in an expanded list.
- ximeng 13y agoSorry, was just following the original suggestion and as I'm not too familiar with the US thought their must be some reason for Austin and Ann Arbor. Austin I've seen in discussions about tech centres, Ann Arbor I know nothing about.
- benatkin 13y agoI suggest replacing Austin with "Texas". It isn't one unified community, but neither is the SF Bay Area.
- ximeng 13y agoOK, done. Thanks. 3 people in Austin are now part of Texas. Hopefully not too many Texans in "other" are missing from "Texas".
- benatkin 13y agoI think the next major adjustment would be to add Atlanta/Florida and DC/Baltimore/Philadelphia. There are already some "other east coast", but I think this will stay on the front page long enough to get many more votes than it has now, so the mixup will become smaller as votes come in. Edit: I'd also make Michigan into "Michigan/Ohio/Pittsburgh", add "Mountain States (Arizona/Utah/Colorado/NM/ID)", and add Other Midwest, and Other South. Then I'd leave it alone. :)
- LetBinding 13y agoAlbuquerque, NM
- nealabq 13y agoFormerly ABQ. Now Las Cruces NM.
- ddebernardy 13y agoI live in: [ ] SF / Bay Area [ ] New York City [ ] Seattle/Redmond area [ ] Random city in Michigan [ ] First house to the left after you run into the cow [ ] Vegas, baby! [ ] Somewhere on the coast [ ] Somewhere not on the coast [ ] Not in the US
- ximeng 13y agoChanged it to Michigan rather than Ann Arbor, although I realise this is still pretty arbitrary.
- ddebernardy 13y agoYeah. As a European, I had to look the city up. Heck, seeing it only has 100k souls or so, I'd wager most US natives can't place it on a map either.
- mrmondo 13y agoWhat is the point in this poll?
- mikedemarais 13y agokansas city kansas
- suyash 13y ago@Poll Creator: Michigan / Ohio / Pittsburgh lumped together, are you kidding me? We need separate options for those states. I would go further and add Detroit, Ann Arbor etc as it's own options.
