From the maker ->
quote:

also to clarify these are the 30 bluest **of the top 100 largest CBSAs by population**, there are probably smaller college towns that would make this list


He doesnt have one for reddest metro areas yet.
quote:

Approximately 111 million so roughly a third of the country live in those blue areas



Also this is from 2024 I believe.

All of them looked poorly positioned to survive a siege when the civil war starts.

I'm surprised NYC isn't higher.

Long Island, Staten Island doing bulk of it for the red areas but the boroughs surrounding NYC are very left leaning.

Whenever I get annoyed by the idiotic rednecks in our neck of the woods, I visualize 2021 in the leftist Atlanta enclave where I lived for two decades, and all is well.

That Minneapolis map looks like the Nazis at Stalingrad in early 1942.

VA Beach must be a recent change. It used to be one of the few Red cities.

Durham is an under-the radar shithole once you step away from Duke's campus.

Very high crime rate too. Form AI:

Durham, North Carolina ranks higher for crime than roughly 94% of U.S. communities, with an overall crime rate that is significantly above the national average.

This can't be right. I this were the case, Ds would never win anything other than local elections.

Austin/Denver/Minneapolis/San Diego/Boston suburbs also notoriously terrible and unhappy places to live. We all have it made down here in Zachary and Denham Springs. Thank our lucky stars.

Do the political proclivities of San Diego follow the fault line?
