What this measures
The percentage of residents who are Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander alone and not Hispanic. It is under 0.1% in most counties. So outside Hawaii and a few Pacific-coast counties, it barely varies, and there is little to compare. Source: Census ACS 5-year.
For most measures, a national ranking mostly sorts places by income and by how urban they are. Each county’s own page compares it with the 50 counties most like it instead, which is often the fairer view.
