Share of taxes from property transfer
The percentage from taxes charged when a property deed or a stock changes hands, not on owning either. It rises with how often property is sold as much as with the tax rate. So Florida and Washington are near the top, alongside Delaware and DC.

Combining areas: an average weighted by state and local tax collections.
What it goes with
The strongest links that have a page of their own. Unadjusted is the link before adjusting for anything, from −1 (opposite) to +1 (in step). Adjusted compares places with the same population density, income and education levels, so those differences can’t explain the link. This list leaves out the 20 pairs built from the same numbers or the same model as this measure, since they are bound to match. These compare 51 states, not counties. With only about fifty places behind each figure, none of them is strong evidence on its own.
| Measure | Unadjusted | Adjusted |
|---|---|---|
| Per capita incomeLinked across states, but mostly as both follow how urban, rich and educated a place is. Comparing only places with similar density, income and education, what is left could easily be chance. | +0.50 | +0.23 |
| Republican share of the two-party vote, 2024Linked across states, but mostly as both follow how urban, rich and educated a place is. Comparing only places with similar density, income and education, what is left could easily be chance. | -0.51 | -0.15 |
Population makeup
How this measure varies with the racial and ethnic makeup of states. Every group is shown, whatever its rank. These are links across states: they describe places, not people. They say nothing about any person’s risk or behaviour based on their race. States with a larger share of one group also differ in much else, such as income, segregation, region and history. The adjusted figure only accounts for density, income and education.
| Share of residents | Unadjusted | Adjusted |
|---|---|---|
| Share White, not HispanicCould easily be chance once only places with similar density, income and education are compared. | -0.18 | +0.03 |
| Share Black, not HispanicCould easily be chance once only places with similar density, income and education are compared. | +0.28 | +0.08 |
| Share Hispanic or Latino, any raceCould easily be chance once only places with similar density, income and education are compared. | +0.01 | -0.08 |
| Share Asian, not HispanicCould easily be chance once only places with similar density, income and education are compared. | +0.12 | -0.07 |
| Share American Indian or Alaska Native, not HispanicCould easily be chance once only places with similar density, income and education are compared. | -0.26 | +0.06 |
Highest and lowest
Of 51 states reporting it. These are the two ends of a national ranking. For most measures, that ranking mostly sorts places by income and how urban they are. That is why the place pages compare each place with similar places instead.
