If you jumped on X / Twitter yesterday morning you may have been greeted by an onslaught of tweets about Spotify Wrapped and one of America's most unassuming cities: Burlington, Vermont.
SEE ALSO:The internet's best reactions to Spotify Wrapped 2023It's a college town with a population of just 44,000, but its residents apparently listen to music with national appeal. That's according to anecdotal evidence from "Sound Town," a new feature of Spotify's annual Wrapped project that showed users what city in the world had the same "taste profile."
What is going on?
According to users on X / Twitter, a disproportionate number of Spotify users had logged on to see their Wrapped report yesterday morning and were told that their sound town was Cambridge, Massachusetts, Berkeley, California, and, especially, Burlington, Vermont.

What does Spotify say?
And while these X posts made it appear that a preponderance of Spotify users listened to the same music, the coincidence had more to do with X users than Spotify ones.
Spotify told NBC News that there were more than 1,300 sound town cities, with just 0.6% of listeners matching the sound town taste profiles of Burlington, 0.3% to Berkeley, and 0.1% to Cambridge.
That means that X users have similar musical tastes to other X users. And maybe Burlington is just a place for the Extremely Online.
Here are some of the funniest reactions to the trend.
