America's Most Literate Cities 2012
So anyone here live in any of these? You'd sort of hope that Washington DC was the most literate I guess, although sometimes you can't be sure if they really are or not..... :-P
Am not 100% convinced by the methodology though, "visited a newspaper/TV website in the past 7 days" isn't the same as, "reading a lot of stuff", I mean you could be just visiting the newspaper site to check the local weather forecast, or going to the TV site to watch their shows on streaming video - and just because you have a lot of bookstores & libraries doesn't mean people are necessarily using them.
