Also they only include startups headquartered within city limits, not in the suburbs and the greater Chicagoland? It's a funny omission, like a list of SF startups eliding the rest of the Bay Area. :)

For anyone interested - BuiltInChicago maintains a different list which is good, it doesn't have funding info but it's more comprehensive:

I disagree here. If I'm looking for companies in San Francisco I want to see companies in the city not in some other area like Oakland or San Jose.

I used to live in Oakland and had to commute to Redwood City for a time so I'm personaly scarred by this lol.

On the Employbl dashboard anyone can add an array of cities they're interested in and query by that. For the Los Angeles post I did include surrounding cities though so I guess personal preference

I imagine you'd disagree, you're the OP and founder :)

But metro areas are important! If I'm looking at SFBA jobs, I wouldn't restrict myself to the 7x7, right? But adding all the little peninsula towns by hand would be a chore.

How about adding a metro area filter, not just plain city?

Working on "remote jobs" filter first but could be good idea having filters for metro areas in addition to filter by city!
