Going to be skewed somewhat by the fact that teams from the same city have sometimes been viewed as equals in terms of who a person should be supporting as a 'local side'. But due to simple geography they're miles apart.

Around Liverpool either team's fair game but a person may differ in distance between Everton and Liverpool FC.

In London this problem is magnified because of the larger city size, population size and therefore number of teams. Where I grew up there were plenty of Arsenal and Spurs fans, with W Ham, Palace and Charlton fans being supported slightly less. Arsenal and Spurs don't even register with the map though.*

Where I grew up:

1. Gillingham (21.8 m)
Priestfield Stadium
2. Southend United (29.0 m)
Roots Hall
3. Dagenham and Redbridge (42.0 m)
London Borough of Barking and Dagenham Stadium
4. Charlton Athletic (43.7 m)
The Valley
5. West Ham United (45.4 m)
Boleyn Ground
6. Crystal Palace (45.6 m)
Selhurst Park
7. Millwall (46.9 m)
The Den
8. Leyton Orient (48.3 m)
Matchroom Stadium
9. Brighton and Hove Albion (49.9 m)
Withdean Stadium
10. Colchester United (50.5 m)
Weston Homes Community Stadium

Not bad, I started off going to Brentford games for years, but I stopped being able to get there and so barely saw them for years. Been to a game either at all those stadiums or at one of those stadiums against one of the other teams listed there :p

Been to games in the home section of the first 5, been to Barnet, and seen Spurs at both Griffin park and Highbury(maybe Emirates... can't remember). Seen Millwall at Griffin park and I think I've seen Crystal palace play at Griffin park, Highbury and QPR.

Fairly sure I've seen Charlton at Highbury, only main London team I don't think I've seen is West Ham.
