Therein lies the challenge with designing districts: Cincinnati is closer to Indiana than Cleveland, just like Cleveland is closer to Pittsburgh than Cincinnati, just like buffalo is (a lot) closer to Cleveland than NYC, just like NYC is much closer to all MAR than most other cities in New York. State lines often do not line up well with team distribution, and there are always teams that will get the short end of the stick. Ideally, once everyone moves to districts, teams will be free to choose the geographically closest events.
