There were over 32 million accounts created on Ashley Madison, and the going consensus is that almost all of them were created by men. In Massachusetts alone, there were over 275,960 accounts created, total. That's a lot, considering that the entire population of the state is 5,300,000.

After analyzing 180 cities, this is the list of the cities with the highest number of per capita Ashley Madison accounts in the Bay State:

  1. Blandford
  2. Boston
  3. Chester
  4. Hanscom Afb
  5. Northampton
  6. Cambridge
  7. Barre
  8. Groton
  9. Worcester

How We Determined The Cheaters In Massachusetts

Want to know who is attempting to cheat? Go directly to the source of people actively trying to cheat — Ashley Madison users.

We used the Ashley Madison database to count how many accounts were created in each zip code. We are saying “accounts” and not “people” because it is possible to create dummy accounts assigned to a city or to have multiple accounts. However, we believe the number of accounts to be a solid proxy for the number of people trying to cheat.

We then matched each zip code to its corresponding city in Massachusetts. If a zip code falls into more than one city, the accounts registered in that zip code were applied to each city.

Finally, we used an estimate for the population of the zip codes to identify the number of cheaters per capita.

After identifying the number of cheaters per capita in a city, we ranked each place from highest number of cheaters per capita to lowest. The place with the most cheaters per capita “earned” the title of cheating central of Massachusetts.

There You Have It, Massachusetts

If you're measuring the locations in Massachusetts where there are a high number of Ashley Madison accounts registered per capita, and we can assume that people registering on the site are exploring the idea to cheat, then Blandford tops the list.

The city least likely to be on Ashley Madison? West Falmouth. So there's still hope out there that some people don't cheat on their spouse.
