I thought there was something fishy with my '100' answer ... if you leave the quantity field blank, you get a list of 100 caches.

 

So the real answer for my area is a more respectable 449.

898 within 10 miles of my home in San Francisco. But I live on the tip of a peninsula, so a lot of that 10 mile radius includes bay and ocean water where there aren't many caches.

Thanks! Your pocket query has been saved and currently results in 58 caches.

 

Wow, I guess there is a price for living in a small town. I can't even imagine having a 1000 caches in less then 10 mile radius.

 

This got me thinking so I ran one from my inlaws in Calgary, AB. Maxed out at 1000 in 10 miles. So I started reducing the radius until I got

 

Thanks! Your pocket query has been modified and currently results in 923 caches in a 6 mile radius.

I'm in Round Rock, TX (just north of Austin) and I get 914 within 10 miles.

 

Edit to add:

 

I went back and checked from my work zip code in south central Austin. That's another 944 within 10 miles with no overlap with my home proximity since I live 25 miles from my office.

 

So between work and home, that's 1858 caches in my immediate stomping grounds that does not even cover the entire greater Austin area.

212 within 10 miles of home. But that's not really indicative of density in my caching area. Set the coordinates to my office, 7 miles south of my home, and I get 635 caches in a 10 mile radius.

From my home in Hubert, NC there are 56 within 10 miles of my house. Within 35 miles there are 558 caches. So there is plenty of room for expansion here in Eastern Carolina.

 

BTW first post in the forums so I guess I am officially no longer a lurker.

616--in CA, a little west of Sacramento

 

Too many micros (too many film cannisters), way too many puzzle caches (we're very erudite here). Not enough traditionals, for sure. :(

I'm in northern phoenix (near Carefree highway and I-17).

Well, Coldgears we are relatively close geographically, but getting just a little bit out of the congested metro area does make a big difference. 203 from Southeastern Berks County PA. Might be a few more as I have a relatively short (20+/-) ignore list, some of which are within that range.

104 here. Unfortunately, going further afield involves paying ferry fees and overnight expenses. Will have to wait and see if the enjoyment is worth the money, but I expect it will take a while to do the 104.
