Does anyone with prior experience know if city-level (or
country/state-level) targetted posts are more likely to be seen by those in
the targetted area, as compared to a non-targetted post?
eg. a post may only show up for 200 out of 1200 fans; if targetted to a
city where 120 of those fans live, will it only appear for approx. 20 of
them or closer to all 120?
