If you're wondering how many listing there are in a given city, there's a way to determine this for cities which aren't too large. This won't work for a big city like New York or Los Angeles, but it will for small to moderate sized cities.
When you search for listings without entering stay dates or checking off private room or entire place, theoretically you should get all the listings in the city, but you will only get "300+" listings.
In order to find out the exact number of listings in the city, you can do sequential searches by price brackets, for instance, first search for all listings in price range $0 - $31, then search listings in price range $32- $39 and so on until you cover all ranges up to $1000+/night.
NOTE that when you do these searches, particularly if the area you're searching under has several cities adjacent to each other, you would do best to use the map to begin the search -- otherwise, when you enter one city name, you may get results in adjacent cities included. For instance, when I did a search for places in San Francisco, I also got included, places in the East Bay (Berkeley, Oakland, El Cerrito, San LEandro) as well as places in the North Bay (San Rafael, Sausalito). IF I first set the search area using the map so that the search area covered San Francisco only, this reduced the search results to just SF.
These are the results I got when applying this technique to Memphis Tennessee:
So when added up these show that there are 511 listings in Memphis.
