The above chart undoubtedly does a good job of demonstrating the actual diversity of the three cities brought up in this thread which probably goes a long way to ascertaining which city has the greater linguistic diversity.
London’s strong Indian and Nigeria populations certainly bring linguistic heft to the discussion; there are more people of Nigerian extract in London than there are Africans in either Toronto or New York for example. The real strength of London from a linguistic perspective however is its spread, its diversity is far less concentrated relative to New York and Toronto and there is more global representation in London which lends itself to increased linguistic diversity.

whatever by region means to them, but even if true, no doubt the same bs brit dialects are included there as well.
