C# - Deserialize JSON object array

Question

I am new to JSON (not C#) and am trying to deserialize the following:

var content =
{"message":"","cod":"200","calctime":"","cnt":1,"list":[{"id":80678,"dt":1439083410,"name":"rvb.name","type":5,"coord":{"lat":55.4033,"lon":37.5617},"distance":57.285,"main":{"temp":288.15,"pressure":999.6,"humidity":76},"rang":1}]}

My Code:

 }
public class Location
{
    public string message { get; set; }
    public string cod { get; set; }
    public string calcutime { get; set; }
    public int cnt { get; set; }
    public List<decimal> coord { get; set; }
    public int distance { get; set; }
}

Location loc = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Location>(content);

However, when I deserialize it it will not populate the lat and long attributes.

Can someone please advise what I am missing.

Thanks in advance. NOTE: I am using JSON.NET api

Great job suggesting a tool that doesn't make the OP reinvent the wheel. He'd probably want to rename the classes it generates though, as List<List> is pretty awful :)

Yes. I noticed that and changed it. Without that site you are really reinventing the wheel...

Coord is not a decimal list. It would be in brackets. Create an coord class with lat and lon.

So what would be the data type of lat and long?

Decimal is fine. Just dictionary instead of list
