Pornhub’s Top Search Terms in US Cities

Pornhub Insights previously told us what users from each state search for on Pornhub, and how long they last on the site. This time our statisticians got together with the folks at Digg to find out what the Top 5 search terms are in major cities across the United States. In addition we analyzed which pornstars are the most popular. Perennial MILF favorite “Lisa Ann” still tops the list in most cities, but new babes like reality star “Farrah Abraham” and Duke University student “Belle Knox” managed to take the top spot in some places.

The most popular search term so far this year in the US has been “massage”, which makes the top 5 in 22 of the 24 cities we looked at and the number 1 spot in 11 cities. Other top searches across the US of A are “lesbian”, “college”, “teen”, “milf”, “mom” and “pov”. In Honolulu and San Francisco where a largest portion of residents are Asian, words like “japanese”, “asian”, and “korean” are very popular along with Asian pornstar “Alina Li”. New York City has a wide range of ethnic searches including “ebony”, “asian” and “indian”.

Regionally, “ebony” and “black” are huge across the Southern states, and any cities with a large percentage of African American residents like Detroit. In the Northeast, “college”, “lesbian” and “massage” account for the most searches. On the West coast, “massage” and “teen” are still popular, but other terms like “yoga” and “casting” make the top 5 lists.

Scroll down to see if your city makes Digg’s top 24 list, and find out what your neighbors are most likely to be searching for!

anchorage-alaska“Smoking” makes the top 5 in only two cities, and tops the list in Anchorage. So much for enjoying Alaska’s fresh air! Anchorage is also the only city where residents have a taste for “creampie”.

atlanta-georgiaOver half of Atlanta’s population identifies as African American (according the 2010 US Census) so it’s no surprise that “ebony” and “black” hit the number one and two spots.

austin-texasAustinites (yup, we looked that up) enjoy a good “massage” video, but also have the strongest love for “pov” (point-of-view) videos – especially when the camera is pointing at “college” “teens”.

baltimore-marylandOver 63% of Baltimore’s residents identify as African American, so both “ebony” and “black” take the top search honors by a large margin. It’s also one of only four cities where “Cartoon” makes the list.

boston-massachusettsBoston shares it’s porn tastes with most of the US where “massage”, “college”, “pov” and “milf” are most popular. “Asian” also makes the top in this city where almost 9% of the population is of Asian descent. Boston is one of three cities where “Farrah Abraham” takes the top spot for pornstar searches.

charlotte-north-carolina

chicago-illinois

columbus-ohio

detroit-michiganDetroit is the only city where “squirt” makes the top 5 list. With over 80% of the population identifying as African American, “black” and “ebony” take the top two spots. Duke University student and recently outed pornstar “Belle Knox” is the most searched for pornstar right now in the Motor City.

honolulu-hawaiiAloha Honolulu! Hawaii has the largest population of Asian Americans in the US (and over 50% of Honolulu residents), so it’s no surprise that terms such as “Asian”, “Japanese”, “Korean” and “Hawaii” all make the top 5 list. Asian babe “Alina Li” is also the most searched for pornstar.

houston-texas

indianapolis-indianaResidents of Indianapolis and Jacksonville love their moms! Or at least they like to be watching someone’s mom. In only three of our cities does the word “mom” come out ahead of the more common search term of “milf”.

jacksonville-floridaIn Jacksonville they also like their ladies “smoking” hot (or at least to be smoking). And teen “mom” “Farrah Abraham” outranks all other pornstars here.

los-angeles-californiaIs it any surprise that the word “casting” makes the Top 5 list in Lala land? Are people there looking for the next big star, or are all the unemployed actors just looking for their own big break?

memphis-tennessee

minneapolis-minnesotaMinneapolis is only one of 2 cities where the term “yoga” makes an appearance. The other city is Portland on the West coast.

new-orleans-louisiana

new-york-new-yorkNew York is the only city where “Indian” makes the top 5 list. Only 2.4% of New York residents are of East-Indian descent, but in a city of 8.4 million people, that equates to over 200,000 people. Other terms like “ebony” and “asian” indicate that New York is indeed a multicultural melting pot.

philadelphia-pennsylvania

phoenix-arizonaPhoenix is another city where teen mom “Farrah Abraham” is the most searched for pornstar. Is it any surprise then that both “teen” and “mom” also make the top 5 list?

portland-oregonAccording the “Portland Monthly” magazine, over 43% of their residents practice some sort of yoga, meditation or pilates. Maybe that’s why the term “yoga” makes such a strong showing on their list.

san-francisco-california33% of San Francisco’s residents are of Asian descent (according to the 2010 US Census), so much like Honolulu, the word “Asian” takes the number one search spot, and “Japanese” comes in at number three. The most popular pornstar is also Asian babe “Alina Li”. And like their fellow Californians in Los Angeles, there are a lot of searches for “casting”.

st-louis-missouriSt. Louis residents are interesting because of their contrasting searches. Ethnicities “Black” and “Ebony” are in the top 5 along with “Asian”. Both “teen” and “milf” are searched almost equally, and although teen comes out slightly ahead, it’s MILF pornstar Lisa Ann that’s most loved.

  1. Can we please take note that “lesbian” is one of the top terms in tons of states that specifically have voted to take away LGBT rights? Ah, the sexy hypocrisy. Gay women are fun to look at, but they don’t deserve equal rights.

    1. Actually, it’s NOT necessarily hypocrisy at all.

      It all depends on “who” STATISTICALLY is searching the terms. If anything, the numbers show the most obvious thing of all — namely regional cities simply search for terms popular within that same region. Hence Honolulu which is heavily Asian looks for “Asian”…a southern city that’s heavily Black looks for “Ebony”…a northeastern city heavily dotted with universities like Boston looks for “College”….and even a city like Los Angeles AKA Hollywood laughably searches the word “casting.”

      So — again, statistically speaking — it only makes sense that the GAY population of a city would likewise search for a term like “lesbian” and drive the numbers. However, unless we could see ALL of the numbers and how they actually break down relative TO the overall populace, we really don’t know just how much “lesbian” is being driven as a search term by curious heterosexuals VERSUS it being driven — in a very disproportionate way — by the gay community itself.

      As for your notion “lesbian women are fun to look at, but don’t deserve equal rights” — puh-leeze, that’s just SILLY. Simply because other psychological sex studies have shown when it comes to men looking at
      two women having sex — in a fascinating example of how the male
      mind works — they often don’t perceive it AS being gay sex, but instead like to watch because THEN they will imagine themselves being IN the scene and thus mentally transform a girl-girl scene into a threesome.

      Also, you’re ignoring another simple fact — namely, someone might enjoy watching “lesbian” scenes because they’re only interested in watching ONE of the girls involved. In short, once again the viewer brushes aside the fact that it’s a lesbian scene and kicks back to enjoy watching some hot babe… who is perhaps one of their favorite porn stars where they just want to enjoy watching the way that ONE person is sexily dressed… gets naked… performs a sexual act… etc, etc, etc.

      Finally and most importantly of all given the POLITICAL point you were
      trying to make — we’re talking about ADULT entertainment and PORN here.
      And you’re making a laughable leap in logic. Just because someone might enjoy watching two women getting naked and making out in the PRIVACY of a bedroom DOESN’T MEAN they will likewise morally support something like gay marriage and ALL of the societal changes it will bring.

      In short — just because a guy might enjoy seeing two women naked at once DOESN’T mean he then wants his kids at elementary school being taught “Tommy has two mommies.”

    2. As for your notion “lesbian women are fun to look at, but don’t deserve equal rights” — that’s just you trying to make things POLITICAL as you get on a personal high horse. Truth be told, psychological sex studies have shown when it comes to men looking at two women having sex — in a fascinating example how the male mind works — they often don’t perceive it as even being gay sex, but instead like to watch simply because THEN a man will fantasize about being IN the scene WITH the men — and thus mentally transform a girl-girl scene into a threesome.

      You’re also ignoring the fact that someone might enjoy watching a girl-girl scene because they’re interested in ONE of the girls involved. So, once again the viewer mentally brushes aside any notion that it’s a lesbian scene and instead simply enjoys watching a particular hot babe… who is possibly one of their favorite porn stars… at which point they just enjoy the way she is dressed… gets naked… performs a sexual act… etc, etc, etc.

      Finally, we’re talking about PORN and you’re making a truly HUGE leap in logic. Just because someone might enjoy watching two hot porn starlets getting naked in a fantasy scene DOESN’T MEAN they should likewise support something like gay marriage and all of the societal changes it brings relative to their in their life in the real world.

      In short — just because some horny guy might enjoy seeing two hot looking women getting naked once in awhile DOESN’T mean that the very next day he wants his little kids skipping off to elementary school and being taught “Tommy has two mommies.”

    3. No, not really. I am against gay marriage, but I love lesbians and even enjoy seeing guys suck each other sometimes. And both me and my wife have partaken in play with members of the same sex, but we are still against gay marriage. Not that we think that gay people shouldn’t be together, we just believe that marriage is a specific concept that by definition is between a man and a woman. Civil Unions are a different matter and I believe more people would be open to that then calling it “marriage.” It is a compromise that would make a lot more people happy by allowing gay partners to be together legally but maintain “marriage” for men and women. Everyone fells better about it and everyone wins.

  2. I don’t want to sound dumb but do some people get excited over people “smoking” and what the hell is “POV”???

    1. Apparently yes. I have seen a smoking vid, which is just uh smoking while having sex, which is like meh ok if thats just super hot to some people. POV = Point of View. Pretty much stick a camera on a guy’s forehead and let the fun begin.

      1. LOL…thanks. “To each his own”. I guess it would be a pretty boring world if everyone was alike.

    1. same shit im saying especially in NY there’s basically Puerto Ricans and Dominicans everywhere

    2. I think that in all the “black” categories, its more than likely that white and Asian chicks are in most of them serving BBC…

        1. No you fucking idiot its called “black” as in black on black sex. “Interracial” is two different races having sex.

  3. Good day! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a team of volunteers and starting a new initiative in a community in the same niche.
