How smart do you think the people are in your New Jersey town? Lumosity, a San Francisco-based brain training company recently released a list of what they believe to be the top 100 smartest towns in America.

According to VentureBeat.com,

The study released today used data from more than 3 million people in the U.S. between the ages of 18 and 75 who had played several Lumosity brain-training games. These games measured performance across five cognitive areas: memory, processing speed, flexibility, attention, and problem solving. Then the scores were ranked by location.
