Here Are The Only 10 States Than Have More Men Than Women
Home1 min read

It is pretty widely known that there are slightly more women than men in the world, but within the United States, the sexes are not evenly distributed among the states.

This map shows the ratio of men to women in each of the fifty states, based on 2010 U.S. Census data. States in blue have more men than women, and states in red have more women than men. The darker the colors, the greater the disparity. We first saw Redditor Funkdified make this map, and wanted to recreate his work.
