I don't know that would be the case, consider that Whatcom is where LFNW is.

Understood. I was actually surprised at the Asia one but there is a
difference hear. Where we are dealing with millions in Asia, we are
dealing with 200k in Whatcom. The reason I picked Whatcom is that
although 50% of the population lives in Bellingham, the other 50% is all
within 30-45 minutes of Bellingham and I didn't want to exclude those areas.

Oh and I forgot to give you the website:
