Did you find that from Reddit? Yesterday, a comment lead me there.

Your link is broken so here is a fixed one: Click

The furthest city from me is St. Johns in Canada.

I just looked it up: Mauritius is island 1200 mi off east coast of Africa, it was the only habitat of the dodo bird, seems like a good place to rule with an iron paw.

Dunedin, New Zealand, 18,200 km away from here.
It's not exactly on the other end of the world from my place, though. Because, that exact point is under water.

I don't know if it's useful but it certainly is interesting.

The furthest cities from where I am are mostly the cities in the US and Canada. I live in the Perth metropolitan area in Western Australia.

Shouldn't this be in the Random Discussion sub-forum?

It seems we are the only ones that live in Australia, your state in particular that the rest are farthest from. :afro:

My furthest city is Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. I'll need to look at pics in Flicker to decide if I want to go or not.

Port-aux-Français, French Southern and Antarctic Lands, apparently somewhere on the "Kerguelen Islands" in the Southern hemisphere. I'd never heard of such a place.
