Of the 238 cities that applied to host Amazon’s second headquarters, the company has narrowed its choices down to 20. If your city is on this list, you may soon be sharing the streets with up to 50,000 employees from Amazon.

  • Atlanta
  • Austin, Texas
  • Boston
  • Chicago
  • Columbus, Ohio
  • Dallas
  • Denver
  • Indianapolis
  • Los Angeles
  • Miami
  • Montgomery County, Md.
  • Nashville
  • Newark, N.J.
  • New York City
  • Northern Virginia
  • Philadelphia
  • Pittsburgh
  • Raleigh, N.C.
  • Toronto
  • Washington, D.C.
