You don’t see your city on the list? You can go here for the complete list. If you live in El Paso, scroll to the bottom.
Check out the links on the main site for an overview of the study, the methodology used to rank the cities, and how they ranked in different categories like Number of Booksellers, Education, Internet, Libraries, Newspapers (We Seattleites have but one major paper now), and Publications.
