Geographical Distribution

In the United States, hackerdom revolves on a Bay

Area-to-Boston axis; about half of the hard core seems to live

within a hundred miles of Cambridge (Massachusetts) or Berkeley

(California), although there are significant contingents in Los

Angeles, in the Pacific Northwest, and around Washington DC.

Hackers tend to cluster around large cities, especially

`university towns' such as the Raleigh-Durham area in North

Carolina or Princeton, New Jersey (this may simply reflect the

fact that many are students or ex-students living near their alma

maters).
