# Local Rank

Local Rank is a numeric value on a logarithmic scale between 0 and 100 to represent the impact of an event to its local area. Local Rank may vary even though the PHQ Rank of the events are the same. For example, a conference with 1,000 people in attendance (with PHQ Rank 50) has a [Local Rank of 43 in Hong Kong](https://events.predicthq.com/events/KKtBoCYP3gWPvgGhnp) where the local population density is around 64,000, while a [Local Rank of 65 in Dublin, Ireland](https://events.predicthq.com/events/0lrweBnDZKrr) where the local population density is around 5,000.

* Local Rank is comparable between the attended events in terms of the event’s impact to its local area.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.predicthq.com/getting-started/predicthq-data/ranks/local-rank.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
