Just think: if hipsters throughout San Diego made the sacrifice to don even tighter jeans, show more leg than their cut-off jean shorts currently reveal, and explored more daring moustache and facial-hair configurations, then San Diego might just make it in Priceonomics' top-ten list of the "Most Hipster Places in America."
This year, San Diego finished 11th, just behind Honolulu.
The price-guide website compiled the list of most-hip cities by looking at the number of fixed-gear bicycles (aka "fixies") for sale per capita in 96 cities across America.
"Fixies (fixed gear bikes) are considered to be a strong indicator of hipsterness," read the post. Because of the minimalism of this fixed gear system, the bikes tend to be aesthetically pleasing but somewhat challenging to ride. This enigmatic combination may be what draws hipsters to the bikes, or not."
To the surprise of many, including those at OC Weekly, Orange County finished at the top of the list.
In all, 7 cities in California finished in the top ten.
