OT: Drunkest Counties - MaroonBells - 03-27-2025
The darker the red and purple, the drunker the county is. Having gone to college in Montana, I can attest to Missoula and Bozeman on this map, but check out Minnesota's neighbor to the east. Wow.

Wisconsin is so disappointed in Burnett County...the only one that wasn't on the drunken leaderboard (on the border with MN)

I see a few missing drunk areas.

Wisconsin shouldn’t be included because they’re professionals and everyone else is an amateur when it comes to abusing alcohol.

When Wisconsin drunks graduate college and move to Colorado...

Having grown up in ND, yeah, I can see some of those counties. Also seems like college towns definitely skew the map, except for Wisconsin. Yikes

I guarantee you this has been filtered in some sorts. There are a few counties/areas of SD that are notorious for alcoholism that reports very low.

Definitely the Montana college towns...amen to that.
Having lived back and forth on the border of Michigan's UP and Northern Wisconsin, I suspect the reason that the border county is not red is because most of the citizenry cross the border to Hurley, Wisconsin, where drinking is an art form. Back in the 1920's there were over 120 liquor licenses in a four block stretch of their little downtown, at the height of the iron mining era.

Yea. I don't think the tribes are picked up in these numbers.

I spent 20 years living in a purple county in Wisconsin but I've moved up now to a relatively sober dark red one.
