If you're planning to move sometime in the future and want to know which cities will accept your Toyota Prius/HUMMER H2, MapInfo Corporation may have just the information for you. The "location intelligence" provider, working with data provided by various sources including R. L. Polk & Co., determined which cities have the largest number of most and least fuel efficient vehicles.

Cities with least-fuel efficient vehicles per population are:
  1. GILLETTE, WY
  2. MARSHALL, MN
  3. SNYDER, TX
  4. ROCK SPRINGS, WY
  5. ELK CITY, OK
  6. HURON, SD
  7. PAMPA, TX
  8. NEW ULM, MN
  9. WATERTOWN, SD
  10. ABERDEEN, SD
The cities with the most fuel-efficient vehicles per population include:
  1. KAPAA, HI
  2. KAHULUI-WAILUKU, HI
  3. HILO, HI
  4. HONOLULU, HI
  5. EUREKA-ARCATA-FORTUNA, CA
  6. BARRE, VT
  7. ATHENS, OH
  8. WILLIMANTIC, CT
  9. FAIRMONT, WV
  10. AK HILL, WV
The company also determined which cities whose populations are spending the largest amount of their income towards fuel costs. Interestingly, those cities do not correspond to those with large number of sports cars, SUVs, and other low fuel-efficient vehicles.
