I am a Geek and where I live now is not a Geek enough city for me, I plan on moving in a year and I want to move to a very Geek City so I wanted to see what people consider really Geeky Cities.
Geekiest City

San Jose, California. It's the center of Silicon Valley. About 45 minutes to San Francisco, 10 minutes to Mountain View, and 5 minutes to Santa Clara. We've got NASA, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo!, Capcom, EA, Adobe, and the list goes on and on. You know you live in a geek's paradise when Google has free wi-fi around the whole area, and George Lucas lives less than an hour away.
Toronto (sorry, Toranno, say it nasally)
Everything about the place, from the accents to the fashion is geeky. It certainly not like any European city I've been to with all the hipsters on fixies flying about, they are the bane of my life in England!
Plus everyone's really nice in Toronto, even the rude people are nice, it's very slightly creepy in a Stepford Wives kind of way.

The nerdiest i've been to was New York(weird i know) they had a gamestop that was two stories and the bottom half was like an xbox lounge(but enough about the cons jk) NY being one of the most populous cities in the world has everything. Anime they surely have convention, music every band goes through NY, and there are numerous release parties in NY. I also think they get many movie theatre releases before anyone else.
Maybe LA thought i think that is where they hold E3 and i know there are plenty of anime conventions around there.

Seattle - within about a 50-mile radius are: Nintendo, Microsoft, Valve, Wizards of the Coast, PopCap, Big Fish, The Experience Music Project/Sci-Fi Museum (they share a building), Amazon.com's birthplace and current HQ, RE-PC Museum, Museum of Communication, Air & Space Museum, Pacific Science Center, and annual conventions including PAX and the Emerald City ComicCon.
I'd assume concentration of geekyness would be a very small town comprised of 3 computer geeks and a gun nut
or somewhere in Japan of course, but depend if you can define them as geeks if they embrace technological geekyness such as they do.
