Leading on from Macalaure's post, I got to a-thunkin' over the United States: sure, maybe they don't (surprisingly!) measure up on a world scale with the number of Downers per million, but as we nonetheless command nearly 200 alone on this list, I wondered which states were the most Barrow-friendly...

Washington – 7 – 5,894,121 = 1.187
Utah – 7 – 2,233,169 = 3.134
Texas – 23 – 20,851,820 = 1.103
South Dakota – 1 – 754,844 = 1.324
Rhode Island – 3 – 1,048,319 = 2.861
New Hampshire – 2 - 1,235,786 = 1.626
Nebraska – 3 - 1,711,263 = 1.753
Minnesota – 5 - 4,919,479 = 1.016
Massachusetts – 10 - 6,349,097 = 1.575
Idaho – 4 - 1,293,953 = 3.091
Alaska – 2 - 626,932 = 3.190
Alabama – 5 - 4,447,100 = 1.124.

Out of our 3- represented states, 12 have more than '1 downer per million', and the grand winner, the most Barrowdowner-populated state was....Alaska?! Well, they don't even reach the 1million mark for total population, but theoretically manages 3(.190) downers per million - congratulations, Alaska! *cheesy smiles as a bouquet of flowers is handed out to...*

Ah. Problem: Alaska actually has no active members at the moment...

And so, in the absence of any active Alaskans, I hereby award the much covetted *cough* prize for 'Most Barrow-friendly State' to mormegil, as he is really the most active of the members from Utah, which wins 2nd prize. Wooh, come to Utah: a high(ish) percentage, not only of mormons, but of Barrowdowners too! And Idaho are out most gracious runners up in 3rd place...*smattering of applause*
