You know why no one travels in the PNW? Because who the fuck would want to go to the rest of this shitty ass country.

Also its Cascadia, not Pacifica.

The most boring of the clusters, the area around Seattle is disappointingly average. Tightly connected to each other, it doesn't look like Washingtonians are big travelers compared to the rest of the West, even though a lot of them claim to need a vacation!

Figures. Fuck you PNW!

On the interactive map, if you click anywhere in the south 'God' and 'Starbucks' are the top two likes.

One other fun tidbit: The most popular name almost everywhere is Michael.

But Michael isn't officially the most common name in the US--only here on Facebook. (The most common American male name is James.)

This confirms my own real life observations that people named Michael have lots of friends and are the social ones, but I have no idea why that is.

it's not that accurate or interesting, considering the fact that there are people living in antarctica
