In Apex Legends there are various landing zones, but not all are equally popular with all player types. One player took the effort and analyzed thousands of rounds with a tracker. The result was the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends.
What are the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends? By analyzing tracker data from over 100,000 matches, a Reddit user named ZYy9oQ has now provided a clear overview of the most popular landing spots in Apex Legends.
Therefore, he can make informed statements about the most popular landing spots, separated by rank. The following maps show where which players land the most.
Landing Zones No Rank 
Landing Zones Bronze 
Landing Zones Silver 
Landing Zones Gold 
Landing Zones Platinum 
Landing Zones Diamond 
Landing Zones Apex Predator

These landing spots are always busy
Here is where the action happens: According to the collected data, especially Skulltown and Market are universally popular. Wetlands and Containment compete for 3rd place. The popularity of Skulltown among beginners in ranked and pros in the last division is particularly interesting.
The place always offers good loot and is not too far from the center of the map. The same goes for Market, which is even a bit closer to the center. So if you land there, you will surely find many opponents and should brace yourself for tough battles.
At these landing spots, you have your peace
Here, hardly anyone lands: The data from ZYy9oQ also shows where players land the least. The eastern part of the map is rather poorly attended. Particularly sparse are the locations Swamp and Relay.
Only in the two top-ranked divisions Diamond and Apex Predator does Swamps suddenly become very popular. But in the other fringe divisions, you are likely to find very little competition there. The reason is probably the great distance to the center and the rather unimpressive loot there.
Nevertheless, it might be more sensible to land exactly there and equip yourself with average loot in peace than to fight with dozens of other players in Skulltown for the top loot.
Tracker provides data for landing zone map
How were the data actually gathered? ZYy9oQ used a tracker program for his analysis and created a kind of heat map showing where the hottest drop zones are. Over 120,000 games of Apex Legends were analyzed for this.
