We don't automatically remove anything. We only remove places when they close for now. We track the popularity and mentions internally but the editorial team has the final say in removing spots.

We're not trying to become critics ourselves, so we err on the side of caution when removing places.

I worry that over time, data will get stale. If a place stops being talked about because its popularity tanks for a righteous reason, it will still show up on the map as a worthwhile place tovisit.
