I thought that city-wise, Columbus was larger than Cleveland. Oh well I am wrong. Looking forward to Illinois I have been to Chicago and its suburbs several times. And, Booger, are you really going to do all 50 states?

Most of this list is Cleveland, since you have the city itself and then 8 suburbs.

15/20. As a Clevelander, I think that's pretty good. The only other one I might have gotten was Mentor.

Doublecheck the data. Columbus is 1, Cleveland 2 on the census data. And my hometown, Newark, is #21.

i was really surprised Sandusky wasn't on here. figured with Cedar Point (and Callahan Brake Pads HQ) there they had to be over 50,000

Cleveland keeps dropping because no one wants to live in the actual city (for good reason) but the 'burbs are great. 8 of them on the list and some of the best don't even make it (like my hometown, Shaker Heights).

Good stuff. As a neighbor from PA, I did pretty good. I've been to eight of these places so that helped me out.

ya this data is way off columbus should be number one with about 711,000 and cleveland should have way less than that now

Interesting that Columbus almost has the combined Cleveland/Columbus figure. I got the top ten and two of the bottom ten. After that, I could only fancy a guess for Dublin and Shaker Heights, to no avail.

I've always found it odd that Columbus has so few pro sports teams compared to Cleveland and Cincy.

#11 and #12 seem to be switched if the population figures are correct.

Columbus can't have a pro sports team since OSU has the monopoly on the city. I was suprised, as always, that suburbs are up there, I was guessing Marietta, Newark and Zanesville. Maybe sporcle can do a quiz of division III colleges in Ohio since I went to one and there are so many.

@ Henry: You mean Oxford? Miami isn't a city in Ohio, its in Florida. The Miami in Ohio is a school.

@Henry: Nope, it was named after a Miami tribe native to the Miami Valley region. And it was established over 100 years before the *other* Miami college :)

I didn't realize Toledo was so large. Only 30K fewer people than Cincinnati proper!

I am a little ashamed I only got 11 living in Ohio myself. Although, living in the central part of the state, those Cleveland suburbs only sound familiar for high school sports in the newspaper. I forgot Youngstown. Ugh! But the other misses were not as maddening. My hometown of Lancaster is at #32.

@ Zao: Though it is now catching up, Columbus historically has had a significantly smaller metropolitan area than both Cleveland and Cincinnati, thus making the city less likely to receive a team in one of the 4 major sports (though the arrival of the Blue Jackets is reflective of the metropolitan area growth).

Columbus metro is the smallest fo the three C's, but they annexed all their suburbs so they would seem bigger. Also my hometown of Cleveland Heights should probably be on here (49k in 2003, seems unlikely 2,000 people would leave in 4 years, although I did :D). I got 15/20, and the 5 i missed were pretty tough. Great quiz!

12/20...not bad for a non-Ohioan. Got a few of the 'burbs; missed a few.

@deej: Cool! I lived in Cleveland Heights for 5 years (grad school) and also was sure it would be on there. Ohio is kind of an interesting state in that it is one of the most highly populated states, yet really doesn't have a huge city. I think overall there are a lot more cities of greater than 50,000 than in some other states - I like this series of quizzes, which will let me know if that theory is correct.
