How the comparison works.
A larger state can have a smaller share. We compare the share of the selected age group that meets the filters, for men and for women.
We combine the men’s and women’s shares for one overall view. This does not measure gender balance or say one state is better for dating. We do not show exact ranks because survey uncertainty is not included and small differences may not matter. Technical detail: we use the geometric mean.
