Which State is Leading The Nation in Electric Vehicles?
Which U.S. state would you guess has the most electric vehicles? If you said California, you’d be right! Not only does California have the most electric vehicles overall due to its large population, but California was also found to have the highest rate of electric vehicles on a per capita basis. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the total number of electric vehicle registrations in California reached a high of 425,300. This amounts to a rate of 1,083.9 registrations for every 100,000 people that live in the state. California’s high rate of electric vehicles may be due to the state releasing a plan to phase out gas-powered cars by 2035 to try and improve air quality.
On the flip side, which state in the U.S. has the lowest rate of electric vehicles on the roads? Mississippi’s low number of electric vehicle registrations puts it at the bottom of the list. Only 780 electric vehicles have been registered in the state of Mississippi, leading to a low rate of just 26.34 electric vehicle registrations for every 100,000 people. How many electric vehicles are on the road in all of the other U.S. states? Learn more with this chart that was created by the people at AlansFactoryOutlet.com and ranks all fifty states based on the number of electric vehicles that have been registered per 100,000 residents. Read on to see which states are leading the nation when it comes to driving electric vehicles, and which states still have a long way to go.

Sports are a universally beloved source of entertainment and pride across the globe. How many sports fans are there in the world?

FIFA reported that an impressive 1.5 billion people tuned in to watch the final live. That’s around 20% of the world population! So what is the most popular sport in the world? You guessed it – soccer! Or association football as the majority of the world calls it. The team at AAAStateofPlay has created this fun, bold visualization of the most popular sport in every country across the globe. Let the games begin!

I absolutely love the header! It’s unique, dynamic, and vibrant! The world map is informative, but my favorite part of this chart is the second visualization. I am not sure what this type of data viz is called – please let me know in the comments if you know! It really helps to convey just how much association football (soccer) dominates the world, but it also gives cricket, baseball, rugby, and basketball opportunities to shine. I want to visit Anguilla and witness boat racing at its finest – it is the country’s official national sport, after all! Cricket is the second most popular sport in the world, which makes me wonder – is America missing out? We should start a petition to bring cricket to the United States!
