      Dayton is the one knocking it out of the park. They have 5% of the population of Chicago, but still managed to hit around 150 kias per month during the last months of the period. Sure, Chicago is managing about 1,250 a month, but if you scaled up Daytons number to Chicago’s size, they’d be pulling around 3,000 cars per month; well over double what the amateurs in Chicago can manage.

      numbers based on eyeballing the last 5 months of the chart. subject to eyeball error

        Yeah Dayton isn’t doing well. If you stick to Kettering, Beavercreek, and downtown you’re fine, but it’s an industrial city that lost all its factories. NCR leaving wrecked it as did the opioid epidemic. It’s also struggling with being one of the more conservative cities as well as having all the nice parts of it independent towns. Hell the most historically important place there, the Wright brothers’ shop was moved to a wealthy suburb to act as a museum.

        It’s a shame. If you want a small affordable city with nice things it’s great. Beautiful parks that allow open drinking, decent culture including a magnificent Oktoberfest that includes admission to the art museum, and it’s not too far from Columbus which is the second biggest city in the Midwest bigger than major cities like Baltimore, DC, Denver, and San Francisco.
