Supported countries ๐ŸŒ

Craigslist is overwhelmingly a North American marketplace. It still hosts sites for around 80 countries, but almost all of them are dormant, so this actor only offers the countries where there is real content to find:

CountryCoverageLive postings (measured)
๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ United States (+1)โœ… FullMillions
๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Canada (+1)โœ… Full~200,000
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ India (+91)๐ŸŸก Limited~8,800
๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ Mexico (+52)๐ŸŸก Limited~2,300

Counts are live postings across the "for sale" and "services" categories, summed over every Craigslist city site in that country.

Why other countries are not offered. Every remaining Craigslist country sits between 0 and 600 live postings nationwide. The whole of the United Kingdom has under 600 across all 27 of its sites; Germany has ~135, France ~109, Italy ~169, Australia ~132, and Romania, Ukraine, Tunisia and Iraq have zero. Japan was measured at ~1,500 postings but only 11 of them nationwide contain a call-to-action with a phone number, and live runs returned nothing, so it was removed too. For comparison, New York City alone has over 127,000. Searching those countries cannot return meaningful results, so instead of listing them and quietly returning an empty dataset, the actor rejects them immediately with an explanation.

If you pass an unsupported country through the API, the run fails within seconds and tells you which countries are supported โ€” it will not burn platform time on a search that cannot succeed.
