I'm surprised. I see more Ruby these days (all the online learning courses i.e.: codeacademy, etc).

Where I live, you won't have trouble finding Rails developers but not so much when it comes to Python.

Github is filled with probably more Ruby than Python.

Python is more popular, Ruby is more trendy and visible.
