New vs. Returning 

This report gives you a quick look at the ratio of new to returning visitors by number of visits and percentage of visits.

You can use the Location report and add advanced segments for new and returning visitors to compare those numbers side by side for each location, and see where the most new visitors come from, and which areas produce the most return visitors. You can use the Engagement report, segment by returning visitors, and see how much time return visitors spend on your site, and the extent to which they navigate your pages.
