chasfh Posted November 18, 2025 Author Posted November 18, 2025 Super interesting map to me. This might make retiring to Florida or Arizona a little more dicey for people. Cook County is not escaping my attention here. That's April through early June dragging it down. Quote

I can't tell exactly where the red ends going south toward LA, but for as often as I have been out there, I still can't get used to the warn days tuning so cold after dark. I just don't acclimate to remembering to take a jacket with me when I leave the house at 3pm in 80 degrees. Quote

chasfh Posted December 5, 2025 Author Posted December 5, 2025 Interesting that the Mexican diaspora has such a presence all the up to the east coast and way up into New England. Cook County is mostly Mexican, but my neighborhood is a relative Puerto Rican enclave. Quote
chasfh Posted December 5, 2025 Author Posted December 5, 2025 The music people here, like @Biff Mayhem, will like this one. I myself got a little hung up on the way "apprehension" is used, which reads weird. At first I was thinking they probably meant "comprehension" ... but, you know, in a certain context, "apprehension" works, too. Quote
