Beth Carvin stashed this in Interesting Research

"Let's start with awesome. As of this writing, out of 36,469 jobs we looked at for Seattle, 552 of them include awesome. That's 1.5%. Out of 53,523 jobs for San Francisco, 1,662 include awesome. That's over 3%! So a job in San Francisco is twice as likely to contain the word awesome as Seattle."
