These stats are from 2005. Wonder what the list looks like as of 2009??

[Infamous92]

Wow, I'm surprised so many US cities made the list.

Those are not US "Cities", but rather US Metropolitan Statistical Areas.

Well played, Japan. Well played.

Cleveland's at #55.. nice. Apparently not so worthless after all .. I know that isn't Northeast Ohio either, because the number is lower. I really wish they redefined what constitutes as a "metro".

[westhou]

On that list does Dallas also include the GDP of Fort Worth?

[waronxmas]

Why not do a top 20?

Atlanta, Houston and Miami would round out the list. Ooooh, I forgot, this is city-data. The fact that 5 of the 20 richest cities in the world are in the Sunbelt, with 4 of them in the South alone, would destroy some people's worlds.

What five would those be? Even if your guess is correct, I count four in the Sunbelt.

And why four in the South? If you are guessing correctly, I count two in the South. And Miami isn't really "the South".

[The San Diegan]

Where's San Diego?
