Mapping America



it's interesting to look at statistics
and look for patterns.

if you're bipolar,
it's practically compulsory.




in my experience,
pattern recognition aka connecting dots
is one of the things my brain
seems wired up to do...







Wall-marts in the US












Passport ownership in the US





...now that we're oriented,
check this out:














IQ levels by state










2004 presidential voting in the US










Over/under median family income (red = under)



this third red and blue
is a pivot point, i think







Annual beer consumption in the US










Per capita wine consumption in the US










Marijuana usage in the US










Religious faith in the US










H1N1 mortality rate in the US

what's interesting about this one
is that the mortality rates are inverted.
the highest rates should not be
in the least populated areas.



hmmmm...














- more to come -

Your iq map is totally incorrect. The real number one is Montana.

I'm curious about this IQ map as well. I've been searching for wherever this information came from. It appears contrary to other verifiable data I've found. The image shows up everywhere in search engines, but can't be substantiated with any sources or data. The only source in the image is "TheSodaJerks.com" a domain which doesn't exist. Many people re-post this data, but it can't be backed up. You should take this down if you can't provide sources. You're just spreading misinformation to skew public opinion.
