Thank you Gaiden. 21 of those cities are on my GAL. How far back does your sampling go? Does it mean that there is less of a likelyhood that they will show up again? There are some prime locations that have only popped up once like Miami and Charlottesville.

This goes as far back as I could find on this board. Some locations appeared more frequently in the past and less so recently and vice versa.
It is also important to remember that a city's appearance on a cert indicates how many hires were made. It could be 0 or it could be 3 or 4 hires per time it shows up on a cert.
However, some cities are clearly frequent flyers and are likely to appear on future certs.

Keep in mind, until this last cert, it was unheard of for all cities listed to hire because SSA got a much larger list of names (3x forecasted spots) by listing lots of cities, and transfers occurred throughout, eliminating listed cities. Take the last cert on the old register. There were about 42 cities, but they only took 29 spread over 26 cities. The more valuable data was which cities had hired. I did that years ago by hand and, sadly, did not save it, but the same names do keep appearing. That list could be constructed from board data, if one were inclined.

Even this time around there appear to have been cities that did not get hired in.

This is how often a given city has appeared on a cert in the last 7 years. This list doesn't indicate when it was on a cert or whether any hires for that city occurred off the cert it was on. This list is ODAR only and does not reflect hiring by OMHA.
The best use of this data is getting some idea of how likely a given city is to appear on the next cert.

Washington DC appeared once (I don't know if anybody was hired) and Baltimore appeared at least once.

G, this was out of how many certs? 1? 7? 12? I tried to find the certs lists using the dates for certs on the timeline thread on page 1. That is the number of certs. I am certain that some were missed. Folks on the board before this cert often did not have someone who was high scoring with wide open GAL post their list. I hope that in the future applicants will do that because it gives solid information for those that follow. I will put Baltimore and DC on the list.

We pretty much always had someone with a wide open GAL post their list or put the list together with more than one person if we needed to. Score didn't matter.

Sorry, I believe Brooklyn NY is also missing from this list.
I consider it a city, although it hasn't been one since the unfortunate amalgamation of boroughs that occurred in 1898. It's the city where I was born and raised, anyway.

Was Brooklyn originally a colony of Brookline? Or was it the other way around?
