Bizjournals.com recently analyzed United States Government Census Data to determine which US cities were the "Brainiest." The number one result, among large cities --- Seattle, with runner-ups San Francisco and Austin, TX.
Not suprisingly, to those who live here, our beloved city of Honolulu, Oahu ranked #15 out of America's 53 Largest Cities.
The study ranked the cities' brainpower based upon a formula that analyzed the percentage of people in each city holding high school, bachelor and advanced degrees, and who took college classes, even without attaining degrees. People under the age of 25 were not counted in calculating the percentages of the population with education. In Honolulu, of the 267,587 adults over the age of 25 who were counted, 31.10% held college or advanced degrees, and 16.62% had never graduated from high-school. The rest either had associates degrees or had taken some college classes.
The Top 20 Cities Were As Follows:
1. Seattle, WA
2. San Francisco, CA
