How many "hits"?

What's a good number for how many "hits" a cache gets? One of mine has been logged 9 times in two weeks. But it is in a heavily populated, urban area. What is the reaspose for other caches?

Dave,

 

I recently did a bit of research on that exact subject. I examined caches with ID's 600 through 650, which were placed two months ago.

 

It appears as though urban-area caches or caches placed in city parks can expect to get anywhere from 10-15 visits on average and 15-20 if the cache seems to be very popular.

 

A rural cache can expect to get around 0-4 visits per month.

 

These stats will change as more people discover geocaching, but I suspect that rural caches will always receive less visits than their urban counterparts.

i think there are more variables than that

(urban vs. rural)..it really depends on a lot of things.. for instance, there are 8 million people in NYC, many caches, much press, and very few visits, if any...
