World’s Most Obsessed Pizza Cities

Published: October 3, 2024

Philadelphia ranked top city obsessed with pizza

What city is most obsessed with pizza? According to one source, it’s Philadelphia. Not only is the City of Brotherly Love home to PizzaCon in November, but it also ranks as the No. 1 city in the entire world when it comes to pizza-related Google searches.

That information comes from Chef’s Pencil, which scoured Google Trends search data and discovered that Philly is  (their words) “the most pizza-obsessed city in the world.”

According to Chef’s Pencil, Philadelphia has “the highest percentage of pizza-related Google searches relative to all local searches.”

It makes sense considering the city’s high Italian American population. Philly is second only to New York City in that regard. The Top 10, which is dominated by Italy and the United States, has some surprises.

1 — Philadelphia

2 — Naples, Italy

3 — Turin, Italy

4 — Columbus, Ohio

5 — Rome, Italy (tie)

5 — Boston (tie)

7 — Milan, Italy

8 — Copenhagen, Denmark (tie)

8 — Indianapolis (tie)

10 — Chicago

Ironically, when Chef’s Pencil dug further into Google Trends data and looked at the highest percentage of pizza-related Google searches relative to all local searches by country, the United States was fourth. Here’s the Top 5.

1 — Italy

2 — Denmark

3 — Canada

4 — United States

5 — Israel

Denmark and Canada being more pizza-obsessed than the United States??? We say NO WAY! But this piece was full of information that we thought you’d find of interest this National Pizza Month, so give it a read.
