With 64% of Americans saying they’re coffee drinkers, chances are your day can’t start — or keep going — without some joe.
With that in mind, the real estate site Clever crunched the numbers to find out where you can move to get the best cups in the country.
Portland, Oregon, was declared the best city for coffee in the U.S.
And it wasn’t even close.
The site compiled data from the U.S. Census, the U.S. Bureau for Economic Analysis as well as Yelp and Google trends to find out which cities had the largest number of coffee shops and bean roasting operations per 100,000 residents. It also determined average prices for a cup and the average income spent by residents annually on the black stuff.
From those numbers and more, a “coffee passion score” was perculated, and at 91.9, Portland was the clear winner. By comparison, the average city in the States earned a 78.
California was well represented in the top five: San Jose came in second, and San Diego was #3. And while Denver, Colorado, was fourth, San Francisco rounded out the top five.
Seattle, the birthplace of Starbucks, was a distant #10.
That said, the coffee giant certainly has its fans: Four California cities had the most Starbucks locations in the U.S.: Sacramento, Los Angeles, Riverside and San Diego, in that order. Seattle came in at #5 in that ranking.
