Maps of Religious Adherents
Different regions of the country have reputations for supporting different worldviews. Since spirituality is important to how people develop and maintain their worldview I was fascinated by this set of
maps that show what percentage of people in each county in the US hold to a particular religion.
- This map shows the Lutheran clustered in the northern midwest.
- And this map shows the Baptists clustered in the south.
- While the Catholics are spread along the souther border states and in the north east and northern midwest in this map.
- And the overall percentage of religious adherents shows high concentrations in the midwest and south and much less concentration on the coasts in this map.
Overall the maps are a quick and interesting way to look at how religion effects our nation differently in different parts of the country.
