Ever since Amazon announced they were looking for a place to host their second headquarters and asked cities and states to submit proposals, the competition has been as absurd as it’s been fierce. Some cities, like Frisco, called in famous faces. Other cities, like Tucson, trucked local fauna all the way up to Seattle. Cities in the same area, like San Francisco and Oakland, joined forces to strengthen their bids. And cities like Chula Vista pulled out all the stops with incentive packages meant to shock and awe.

All the while there were plenty of concerns about the effect that Amazon might have on whichever city is chosen. Sure they’ll bring lots of jobs and tax dollars with them but Amazon also heralds rising housing costs, commuting headaches, and potential gentrification concerns.

None of that seems to have stopped plenty of cities from at least kicking the tires as Amazon announced Monday that they received 238 proposals across North America for the right to be their new home.

According to Amazon, 54 different states, provinces, and territories in the United States, Canada and Mexico are represented among the proposals.

Chances are, Amazon won’t be swayed by offers to name a town after them or by which city bought the most items on Amazon.com. Instead, it’ll be the place that provides them with what they need to do business while also offering low costs and enough incentives to keep things that way.
