For a non- Californian, I think 16 out of 18 is a pretty good score

I grew up in the Bay Area, so easy for me. Non-Californians who do well should be proud.

I lived in the Bay area, though not for very long, and feel like I should have done better.

I’m from Nottingham and have never travelled east of NYC, so I think I just lucked out!

Got 16 by knowing surprisingly many Los Angeles suburbs and pinning the rest on Bay Area.

I have no idea how I got 13/18 when I've never been to California. The only ones I knew were Malibu, Oakland, and San Jose. I must have just gotten very lucky!

Fun quiz and idea. Maybe make a second one with harder cities?

As an LA native of 29 years; thanks for the easy points. I can definitely see how non-Californians might struggle though. Also, I never heard of Sausalito, but I just knew it wasn't LA.

Too California-centric. You could have included cities from Hudson's Bay, Halong Bay, Bay of Bengal, etc.

Since this is a California quiz your suggestions would have been too weird. I think there is a quiz that does what you suggested somewhere on jetpunk though.

And also suburbs of Angeles, Phillipines. We must stop this horrible California-centricism!!

Great quiz, easy 100% for any Californian like me. It would also be cool to have a version of this quiz where the cities change every time, pulling randomly from a pool of all San Francisco and Los Angeles suburbs. I'd do it myself, but I don't know how.

Oakland is about as much a suburb as St. Petersburg or St. Paul or Fort Worth or Tacoma.

The description was asking whether the cities were suburbs of LA or part of the Bay Area. There is no city called "Bay Area" so they couldn't be suburbs of it.

It is implied, by the quiz title, that all cities included in this quiz will be suburbs.

Of course, it is debatable whether Oakland, San Jose, and (maybe) Long Beach are actually suburbs.

The majority of these cities are not suburbs. I'm sure Anaheim is less a suburb of LA than its own employment center, same with every single city in the Bay Area. Long Beach is also def not a suburb

20 seconds for this bay area kid. By far fastest of any quiz this length.
