One of the posters above is right. Being a regular folk in a major city doesn't mean much if you're just getting by and not a major player in the area. It simply means you have more access to entertainment. If you ain't famous nor at least making 100k+, what's there to be proud of if you didn't have much contribution other than paying taxes.

Da fukk. I stay in arguably the technology capital of the world. San Jose is basically all of Santa Clara county... and the capital of silicon valley. 10th largest city in the country and not even on the list. Take san jose out and you fakkits arent even on the net. Facebook, google, apple, nvidia, dell, oracle, usa samsung, sun microchips, cisco, yahoo, linkedin, citrix and intel are all within a 5-10 min drive of each other. Dumbass amount of industry here. I dont get it. Not on the list smh

some of the criteria for being an alpha city is having an economic and cultural influence on the rest of the world.

london is a huge banking center and many world banks have offices there.

in terms of culture, how many people across the world speak English?

All Im saying is that the South Bay is the 2nd strongest economic center in terms of sub-areas in California. Stronger GDP than SF. And even stronger gdp than any area of LA of the same size. This is an industry city providing technology worldwide. Everyone knows silicon valley.
:yes:

So in regards to influence, name a nikka we aint influenced.
:patrice:

We import and export workers to and from Asia, Australia and Europe. I'm not calling for a top 5 position. But for us not to be even on the list is fukkery. At Least an Alpha -
:childplease:
