15 of Chicagoland's 30 F500 HQs are located in downtown. Chicago.
Obviously no one is coming close to touching Manhattan on this score, but it'd still be cool to see how others stack up.

This one was a bit difficult to answer, because of the SF/SJ MSA being split up, and there being three CBDs in the Bay Area. So here's the breakdown:
43 total F500 HQs in the Bay Area.
- 23 of the 43 are in the SF MSA
- 11 of the 23 are in SF's suburbs (Chevron, Concentrix, Electronic Arts, Equinix, Franklin Resources, Gilead, Lam Research, Meta, Ross, TD Synnex, Workday)
- 6 of the 23 are in SF's CBD (DoorDash, Gap, Prologis, Salesforce, Visa, Wells Fargo)
- 3 of the 23 are in SF proper but not its CBD (Airbnb, Uber, Williams-Sonoma)
- 3 of the 23 are in Oakland's CBD (Block, Clorox, PG&E)
- 20 of the 43 are in the SJ MSA
- 13 of the 20 are in SJ's suburbs (Advanced Micro Devices, Alphabet, Apple, Applied Materials, Broadcom, HP, Intel, Intuit, Intuitive Surgical, KLA, Netflix, Nvidia, ServiceNow)
- 6 of the 20 are in SJ proper but not its CBD (Cisco, Ebay, Paypal, Sanmina, Super Micro Computer, Western Digital)
- 1 of the 20 is in SJ's CBD (Adobe)
A total of 10 out of the Bay Area's 43 F500 HQs are located in a downtown. Out of those 10, 6 are in downtown SF, 3 are in downtown Oakland, and 1 is in downtown San Jose. If you consider SF the primary CBD of the Bay Area, then you could say that basically,
the Bay Area has 6 of its 43 F500 HQs in downtown SF.
And if you're a visual person as I suspect most of you are, here's a nice map I put together of all the HQs. Orange for SF MSA (Go Giants!) and blue for SJ MSA (Go Sharks!).
