As smart home devices gain speed across America, our friends at Yonomi are using data to determine which cities have the highest volume of smart home activity.
Yonomi is a free app which connects your smart home devices, allowing your thermostats, entertainment systems, lighting (and more!) to work in unison. The best part? Yonomi connects devices from different brands, so many of your gadgets from the Smart Home Staging Kit can work in tandem through the platform.
Yonomi gathered its own usage data to pinpoint smart home activity hubs across America. By looking at the number of ‘routines’, or actions that control multiple smart products, they determined that there are high concentrations of smart home ‘power users’ in the following U.S. cities.
Looking to buy a home in these cities? Don’t fret, we’ve already done some smart home house-hunting for you! Check out these Coldwell Banker listings in some of the ‘smartest’ cities, all of which are smart home certified based on our definition.
