Default MPG 100% City Driving?

Does anyone have an mileage charts recorded for driving the S2K with 100% city driving? Or those of you who mostly drive city, can you tell me how many miles you get per fill up? I hear everyone getting 22-27 mpg on average and I wonder why but I'm thinking it's mainly cuz you all mostly drive on the freeway. Am I correct?

75%+ of my driving is city and I still get mid-20s, admittedly I don't have a heavy foot which I am sure helps.

To be really accurate we need to know approx how many VTECs you've done and at what rpm do you shift and cruise at lol.

on a somewhat side note, what would you guys say is the most efficient rpm in 6th(highway cruising) on stock car with stock dimension tires for an AP1?

The manual says around 62mph or around 3500rpm. Is this true?

Around 220-230 per tank.
My car don't get to see the freeway that much.

Oh, and that's with about 1 VTEC per drive.
I shift around 4-4.5k for normal driving.
