Geographically, where are the best places to host?

For the states, I gotta go with Chicago. I'm in Ohio and all my requests get routed through Chicago. Florida? New York? Germany? Gotta go through Chicago, and sometimes even back through Ohio.

What cities have the best bandwidth?

    Probably Chicago or Dallas. I've always preferred Dallas since it's more central and probably slightly better for west coast users.

  • Ashburn, for sure.

    Connectivity-wise, Dallas is great, but the Texas grid's instability during hurricane season can be a risk. Even Tier 1 ISPs have downtimes during severe weather.

    Grid stability isn't an issue with datacenters in Dallas really. commercial entities get higher priority than residential users anyway, and some datacenters are in areas that are on the same grid connections as high priority things like hospitals and government buildings. Most power issues here with weather is due to poorly maintained above ground utility lines, like transformers blowing or trees hitting lines (which are mostly residential issues.) Dallas is a great place to host.

    I'd say Kansas City is worth a mention. Geographically centered in the country, network wise not too high of latency to most of the country's population centers. Not a bad choice.
