The Homes of the Best: The Geography of Team USA


With the Opening Ceremony of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia today, I decided to analyze the geography of Team USA. This map shows the states in which our Olympians were born. The darker the state, the more Olympians. California had the most Olympians, followed by Minnesota. Interestingly, Team USA has some international components as well. It consists of 4 Canadians, 1 Russian, and 1 German.

 God Bless America!
