I heard about this and was really interested to see what would come up for my city.

Seeing this thread, I finally decided to go to the decide to check it out. This is what I found out:

There currently isn't enough data to show Local Favorites for this area. Please try another area.



All right, forget my city. How about one of the nearby cities? It should probably be fairly representative because both cities are in the Rio Grande Valley. I found the results ... slightly disturbing.

Army of Darkness made the Top 10 for Salem, Oregon.

the rest are mostly kid and holiday type stuff. Not even any recent releases made the list.

Mondo Kane

Westerns appear to be very popular near my neck of the woods.

Disc Man

Yeah, my area appears to be focused primarily on romance, horror, and independent type films. American Splendor being the obvious choice of course (seeing it actually takes place and is filmed here in Cleveland).

Mister Peepers:

Yeah, Cleveland is really hard to like sometimes. Pot holes, the Browns, and being one of the poorest cities in the nation doesn't exactly make Cleveland a desired place to live either.

It should be noted that these aren't necessarily the most rented Netflix films in your city. It says members in that city "are currently renting these titles much more than other Netflix members." So, for instance, Perfume probably isn't getting the most rentals in Kent, but it's getting a lot more activity in Kent as compared to other cities. In a way, I think that's more interesting than if they showed us the real top 25, which would probably largely be new releases and big studio pics.
