Most Audiophiles by State


My wife was asking me this question. I thought it would probably be California.

Anyone know how we can get actual data? Thoughts?
I'm sure the magazines have a really good idea..

Other States may start out with the most audiophiles but they all migrate to Florida eventually.drrsutliff
I'm going to go by where gear is for sale all of the time. I can tell you by the dealers available that Texas, per capita has to be one of the worst. Houston is the largest city in Texas, the 4th largest in the US, and has about exactly ONE high end audio store. I say California, New York and Florida (which is really an extension of New York) probably have the most audiophiles per capita.

Followed by states where it's very cold for a long time, Utah, Colorado, Illinois, and Minnisota.
Yes, places that have cold weather much of the year may conpensate somewhat for population.

I live in Edmonton, Alberta(Canada) and my American audio freinds are often surprised at the number of dealers in this city. The population is roughly one million and we have at least nine high end shops.

In -30 degrees the Aleph keeps my feet warm:)
