US Religions, mapped by county. If I'm to take one thing from it, though I expected it for the Mormons, I'm surprised at how clumped the Baptists and Lutherens are.
...That one high-density concentration of Mennonites in upstate NY? That's where my folks are. I'm sure there would be a similar blob where I live now, if the map didn't halt at the border.
I'm perplexed by the high density of Quakers in southeastern Colorado. I suppose the overall person density is just low (based on a look at google maps), and there might be a few Evangelical Friends churches in the area. It's too far East for Colorado Springs, I think. The Alaska Quaker blob isn't a surprise; there's a largely-Innuit Yearly Meeting up there.
The Colorado Quakers seem to be a change, from 1990 to 2000, according to this other survey which used the same source, but 1990 data.
