Virgo Cluster.
Reason: dark matter mass scales with the total gravitationally bound mass. The solar system has essentially no dark-matter mass, the Milky Way is ~10^12 M☉ (mostly dark matter in its halo), the Local Group is a few ×10^12 M☉, while the Virgo Cluster is much larger (∼10^14–10^15 M☉), so it contains the most dark matter.
