Hi 1akal,
Drilling further down into the GetListed.org page vzPRO linked to, you will find two sections that will help you:
https://getlisted.org/static/resources/local-citations-by-city.html
https://getlisted.org/static/resources/local-citations-by-category.html
I also recommend that you check out the Local Search Ecosystem 2013 infographic to understand the relationship between data providers:
http://moz.com/blog/2013-local-search-ecosystems
Adam Steele wrote a very good post on US citations earlier this year:
http://www.leanmarketing.ca/lean-top-50-best-local-citation-sources-in-the-usa/
However, if you are not located in a major city, you may not find a lot of preexisting lists of things like classified, local blogs, news sites, etc., for your city. You will likely need to do your research beyond the broad data provided by resources like the ones I've linked to, above. In that event, you will need to learn how to judge the quality of a citation. There is no standardized way to do so, but I really like Darren Shaw's article on this topic:
http://www.whitespark.ca/blog/post/12-how-to-identify-quality-citation-sources
Hope these resources help you!

I've linked to a basic version of one I've built and use for my clients. It's not ALL of them but the ones listed are free. You'll still need to find directories in your local area that will help them but it's a good starting point.
You can also use a service like Yext.com for more but there is a fee to use them.
Also, here is some resources for citation building best practices. These are from getlisted.org a company owned by Moz.com:

Can you export a keyword rankings report with the keywords listed in order of ranking ?
My keyword ranking report shows the results all jumbled. I can put them in order when viewing the report online, but when I export it , the results go back to all jumbled rankings.

Picking a directory to list in
When i decide if a paid directory is worth listing in, do i look at the page where my link will be placed and judge it based on how many incoming links that page has, or looking at the page rank, or looking at the mozrank? Or is it just the overall rank of the home page of the directory? I notice that page rank gets less and less the deeper you go into a directory until the pages are unranked. Does that mean that the page is not crawled by google, or is considered an irrelevant page and would not be worth paying for a link there? Also, how many pages deep into the directory is too deep to mess with? Also what are some good directories that offer deep links? I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts.... Thanks in advance! Ron

SEO Web Crawler - Referrer Lists XML Sitemap URL
Hello!, I recently ran the crawl tool on a client site. Opening up the file, I noticed that the referring URLs listed are my XML sitemaps and not (X)HTML pages. Any reason or thoughts behind why this is happening? Thanks!

SEOMOZ stopped counting local results as a rank?
I had a terrifying experience today upon receiving my weekly rankings report that stated I had dropped out of google for the majority of my keywords! However upon further inspection it would appear the report is not including local results in the ranking (my page shows up #1 but is a local result). This didn't happen before, did something change that I didn't know about?

Links listed in MozPro Crawl Diagnostics
Ok, seeing as I'm getting to the end of my first week as a Pro Member, I'm getting more and more feedback regarding the pages on my site. I'm slightly concerned though that, having logged in this morning, I'm being shown 407 warnings for pages with 'Too Many On Page Links.' According to the blurb at the top of the page, 'Too Many' is generally defined as being over 100 links on a page ... but when I look at the pages which are being thrown up in the report, none of them contain anywhere near 100 links. I seriously doubt there is a glitch with the tool which has led me to think that maybe there's an issue with the way my site is coded. Is anyone aware of a coding problem that may lead Google and SEOMoz to suspect that I have a load of links across my site? P.S. As an aside, when this tool mentions 'Too Many Links' is it referring purely to OBL or does it count links to elsewhere on my domain too? Cheers,
