Dallas: 53
Houston: 61
San Jose: 30
DC: 90 - usually in actual game 125+
Seattle: 15
Chicago: 66ish
I voted for San Jose because that was the best ping for the Asian community. Even the Aussies don't ping good in Chicago. Dallas from what I read in this thread isn't good for them and they have the highest population (Asians). My second pick would be Texas as it's central as well and has better ping then chicago.
It sounds like you already made up your mind, though.
66 is better then 90 - 125+
