Hello fellow Proud Prius owners! !!!!! I am looking for the top ten US cities in "per capita" Prius sales. I recently relocated to Bellingham, Washington and I see myself coming and going here ,this in comparison to where I lived before in the Southeast US, where seeing another Prius was rare. Can anyone help me with some info to satisfy my craving?? I was doing a few Google searches, but came up with results that were not quite what I was looking for. I would like the source where the info was found if possible. Thanks everyone!
I don't know the info you want, but I'll make an educated guess that all 10 cities are on the west coast! BTW if ANYONE knows the info, it would probably be Michelle Vadeboncoeur, who posts on the Yahoo groups or priusonline.com
Here's a recent thread about which states have the most hybrids, but I couldn't find anything on a city-by-city basis unfortunately.
Actually, I forgot that the Washington DC area has (or at least HAD) the most Prius per capita, even though California had the greatest total number of Prius. That's because they had grandfathered HOV access before California or Florida got it. Since production has increased so much in the last couple of years, I don't know if DC is still the per capita leader or not.
If you are looking for cities with the most Prius sales (not ownership), then what you are probably looking for are the largest Prius dealerships. Manassas, VA, might be one....
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(jaxhpfa @ Jun 2 2006, 10:49 AM) [snapback]264741[/snapback]</div> i feel your pain but the info will not be easy in coming. i have long contended that Olympia has the one of the highest if not the highest percentage of Prius owners. i have looked high and low and cannot find any specific information other than that there are way more Priuses here than what (that does not include the thousands of Priuses in Thurston County that are county, city or state fleet vehicles) most others on this forum report as seeing.
I thought it had been confirmed that the town of Winters, CA has the highest per capita percentage of Priuses to residents? I thought that's what Jack had said at least... Found the thread...
