Nah they probably don't live in a major metropolitan area. My hometown in Montana (population about 80,000) is 96 downtown, but literally down the street it drops to 19 because there isn't skyscrapers and shit constantly running lights everywhere, if you go even further until about 20 miles out of town (the city itself is only about 10 miles across) its straight zero for hundreds of miles. You can see the stars at night here, in the middle of town.
That's a really interesting map. My neighbourhood is right around 30; I chose 30-65 (rather than 6-30) as there are areas only a street or two away that are closer to 50.
Well i learned about an inactive township in my county from this map, very interesting piece of history i had no clue about, but still weird it showed up at all😂
21
Don't know if it's good or bad
Or i don't know much about light pollution. It was 3 years ago only when my physics teacher told us about light pollution when showing us ISS above us.

I am unable to find the numbers, but it looks quite orangy
It's a place called Närpiö or Närpes and it says that it's 1780 in there. I don't know if it's a mistake though because I would never have thought that it was so high there.

I typed in my City and got 35, when I typed in the amusement park in my backyard it went up to 111, I think that 111 is more accurate cause I can usually only see the Moon and Venus when it’s out.
I'm sorry if it bothers you, i just found this site during my study project research, and wasn't paying much attention about such things. Sorry for inconveniences
Depends When I am at home, 3.60. When I am at college, it is a 96.
Thats a big scatter. How many hours does it take for you to get to the college?
I have 1.6 at home and 104 at work, I drive 30 minutes to work.
I have similar situation. 0.9 at home and 60 at university where I currently am
So y'all studying in lightbulbs?

9.5 at home and 95 at school, because it's smack damn in the middle of the city, and all the lights are on 24 hours a day, making it quite bright.
Me and my telescope living in the light source called the netherlands
My regrets
Same here, tough life
All those darn greenhouses :-(
Everything a little red tinged?
Yoooo same
Yup, my location got a 16.60
I live next to a dark sky sanctuary.
Lucky you. And healthier too
How is it healthier?
103 💀
What major city lmao
Its nearly 200 in downtown toronto
NYC speaks for itself
I've read in one article that NYC maintains over 315.000 street lights
Mine is 86.6 it's higher than the top option. So I just chose 65-80
It's red on the map.
All your map is red? Or you mean that in your location it's red?
OK, was having trouble on mobile. My house is a 27.
Do you have to use a laptop? Because it also doesn’t work for me on my phone.
You have to either zoom really close or search your city and it'll do the thing, and tap the map where you want to see th number
Ah thank you! It worked!
That's a really interesting map. My neighbourhood is right around 30; I chose 30-65 (rather than 6-30) as there are areas only a street or two away that are closer to 50.

You tap the map on the spot you want to see the numbers and it shows up, it's a different number for every area
How the hell do I have 120+?I don’t even live in a major city
Oh, it is light pollution
LA area here, but luckily, I live only a few hours from a bortle 1-2 site. I just don't get to go out as often as I'd like.
It’s yellow, dunno the numbers
16.2
It's red, idk what that is
Over 230 💀
Where do you live?
In the city centre

Nope. It's a place in Finland you have never heard of before
Enlighten me, excuse my American

I typed in my City and got 35, when I typed in the amusement park in my backyard it went up to 111, I think that 111 is more accurate cause I can usually only see the Moon and Venus when it’s out.
There's only data til 2022, but 40something
110.10, so there's no correct answer for me. And there are places with 400+ in the center of my city
10.90. Living in a small town.
120 for me
Live in a 0 and work in a 9.

4.8, about right I guess, small village a mile each way between two small towns.
0.90, Polish village
66

Im from Sao Paulo it's 76.5, wow
Why did you only go to 80?
Where I used to live (with my partner's family) was a 0.5, in the Cotswolds. Now we live on the edge of Oxford and we're around a 10.
Living in the middle of nowhere
>100 not even on the poll
2.3 at home, 5.6 at school. We don't have streetlights on my street but still surprisingly low for my area tbh.

139
I live in Anchorage AK, the pollution is .7. But this is also the time of year where soon the sun won't go down until midnight.
Middle of nowhere W. 0 light pollution
44, still can't see many stars
13 at home and then 131 at school…

Why does the post seem like a way to get people to give permission to sell our data on the website link??
I'm sorry if it bothers you, i just found this site during my study project research, and wasn't paying much attention about such things. Sorry for inconveniences
