The Fifteen Gayest Cities in America

The Advocate has come up with a list of the gayest towns outside of the megacities; go here to see how each one scored on their admittedly arbitrary point system.

Frankly, I find it very hard to believe that Iowa City is "gayer" than New Orleans, which is the San Francisco of the South.  But then, I've never been to Iowa, so what do I know?

1. Atlanta, Ga.
2. Burlington, Vt.
3. Iowa City, Ia.
4. Bloomington, Ind.
5. Madison, Wisc.
6. New Orleans, La.
7. Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
8. Portland, Ore.
9. Austin, Tex.
10. Seattle, Wash.
11. Gainesville, Fla.
12. Asheville, N. C.
13. Springfield, Mass.
14. San Diego, Calif.
15. Albuquerque, N. M.
