Interesting, and dead-on. The zip code it chose for me is the one that borders my current zip code to the west, and happens to be the same one the article's author mentions. #3 is the one I currently live in, and #4 is the last one I lived in.
Yeah. Tweaking "I prefer urban areas" (I like both), to "Agree" also go me within spitting distance of where I was born, raised, and have retired to.
GeoIP would not seem to be a strong component, for the "Don't Include" and "Disagree" options were a long ways away (both near the state capitol, in fact), although in my Purple state with two big cities there's really a lot of areas for everyone.
Interesting. I got my current city as choice #2 for my state (Lookout Mountain, GA). My fiancee and I are considering moving to Greenville, which is my top result for SC.
Yeah, I got Inverness. My answers were the obvious liberal ones, except gun control which I'm not fanatical about in either direction, but I don't believe increased gun control is a real and practical solution to any problem we currently have as a country.
I think I'll be staying in San Diego, though; it skews fairly conservative for California but like most places you can find plenty of people with similar views to your own here if that's what you're after.
Small nit-pick: "Pro-gun" is not an ideology, it's a position that might flow from an ideology e.g. libertarianism, or might just be a stand-alone position.
"Pro-gun" is an utterly reliable touchstone. Granted, it doesn't say if you're e.g. libertarian or paleoconservative, the two that are reliably pro-gun (I'm some of both), but it's a really really good marker.

I got Lester, IA which apparently has an off the charts population density of 464,912 people per square mile! Total population is only 294 though...

The place I actually live was #3 on the list, so close enough I guess.
