Why didn’t you include Brolaska? They have more men than women than any other state. The saying for women of dating age there is: “the odds are good, but the goods are odd”.
I live in Utah, and the reason why there are so many men here is because of the construction and mining industries. EVERYTHING is under construction in the Salt Lake area. On top of that, there’s lots of mines in this area. Sausage city there.
Utah: You would need to look at a county by county economic breakdown to understand the gender distribution. There are a number military installations with Hill Airforce Base being the largest. Excluding the predominately male military, Utah has a close to normal gender distribution.
As a Fountain, CO resident, which is in the Colorado Springs area, I can say that our demographics has slightly more men than women that skew younger due to the military presence that we have. Additionally, the defense industry out here is male dominated from my experience in working with several defense industry companies.
All those pseudo stats have nothing to do with it, in all white countries and states the men outnumber women because they are not anxious to lock them up, send them to war, have a poisonous environment or tolerate illicit drugs. Not to mention the further you go north to the end of the world, women simply don't want to live there.
My drill instructors in USMC bootcamp had something to say about everywhere. To highlight your video, "Wyoming, where men are men and sheep are scared."

Most these state also have the highest gender pay gaps between men and women...which is why educated women leave for higher paying jobs in other State.
Ehhh not really. Of course a male dominated job is going to pay men more since its often heavy labor which a women can't compete with a man on. There are reasons you don't see many women firefighters for instance. They need to have the strength to carry another firefighter (big man sized) with gear from a building if they had to. Very very few women can do that, biology at work. So when you have a chunk of a states higher paying jobs that are heavy labor intensive then yeah its going to make the states statistics look like there might be a pay gap. But with any job if the women can do it just as well or better they will get paid appropriately. There is already national proof of women making more then men in many cases in jobs they can excel at where physical labor isn't a core aspect of the job. If im running a business im going to pay more to the people that contribute more to the job regardless of gender because i want to keep those employees. Women also historically tend to bring things to the workplace more often than men, like drama and lost productivity due to pregnancy. Don't get me wrong, pregnancy is a blessed thing and we have an issue in this nation with declining birth rates. But it still impacts someones productivity. If im running a business and I have 2 employees and 1 is always there when I need them and the other is gone half the time due to pregnancy or other female issues, which employee is the smarter investment from a purely making money viewpoint? I am of course exaggerating, but its to make a point why in many cases there has been a pay gap. Women typically bring more baggage to the workplace that interferes with work then men. That is not to say men don't also have baggage of course. But if you're a business trying to squeak out a profit you're going to weigh every loss and gain. Once again even considering what I said above, there are many jobs I would hire a women for before a man, or would consider them equal. Just because there are things women on average excel at. People too often though in their quest for equality forget that there are things that will never change that make us different. At the end of the day it comes down to who can do the job well or better then their peers, whether man or women. The big cities tend to have more jobs that a women can excel at.
Coincidence or not exactly this states have longest and harshest winters in USA,together with Alaska which is actually the coldest and also has more men..I am pretty sure just this factor alone contribute to great extent
Colorado has ~ 40k military members there. I know the point was to find a geographic reason behind this, but it's probably more socio-economic. Women in these conservative states are not always treated as equals, that has to be tiring.
As a woman who grew up in Utah, and then moved away, I might have AN answer as to why there might be more men than women in Utah: marriage. I met my husband (who was from out of state) in Utah while in college, and after we graduated he got job in California, so we moved. This is also true of my mother-in-law, and a few other women I’ve known throughout the years
There was a severe shortage of women when I was attending salsa dance classes in SLC; boxing/Muay Thai gyms have some ... lesbians. Ski resorts are full of gold diggers. Expectations on dating sites were also unrealistic. Got 0 dates in 5 years. LOL Had to travel overseas to meet women, since "I'm not even American". Later turned out not to be true in other states.
Ngl, but the ability to say "idk but here are some ideas" for Utah earned my subscription. That is the humble confidence symbolic of research experience.
Maybe women are moving to places where they have a better chance of having/keeping control over their rights rather than some old men making those choices for them.
For some women, yes, I’m sure. But for most women, as with men, having grown up in one place makes it harder to move away, especially if friends and family are there.
I suspect Utah can be explained by 1. having a smaller life expectancy gap between men and women than any other state and 2. Having a younger population than any other state.
I live in California, a state with more women, yet I still can't get a date. Dating apps don't work and when I meet a woman IRL, they're always taken. 😓
Utah's probably a technicality. The difference isn't too far off, where there's only 50.3% men and 49.7% women, although it's tough seeing that the state has been evenly 50% and 50% in the past several years.
Lifestyle is rural and tuff. Jobs that attract women are fewer. The mentality of the men in these areas are very conservative and they don’t appreciate liberal women.
It's volcanos. Something about them. Think about it. Hawaii is basically all volcano. Yellowstone is in wyoming, dead center of the man zone. It's the volcanos.

Also, since it's a younger population, if your middle age there are not a lot of senior citizen men here. It is starting to change slowly here due to the California influx.

Two of the many factors that play into this are resources and the environment. just like the weather for instance. If you don't learn to adapt and learn. You lose it. It's not like the weather stays the same throughout the year there. It can dramatically shift from 40 to -30 on the same day in the winter months. Things tend to break dramatically when this occurs. It can be shining and warm, and the next moment, it can be hyperthermia type of weather in the spring and fall when caught outside. Men have to fix, maintain, work, and adapt as men to the situation all the time for infrastructure purposes to maintain society or have nothing. It's not an easier task by any means when farther from the equator, the ocean, and the weather for resources to live. And proves why more people tend to live. Down south, or to the west and east coast. It's more beneficial.
I got some funny nicknames for the more women dominated states. Instead of Florida, how about Feminida (get it, lol), Maine is Dame, Massachusetts is Massatutus, New Jersey is New Girly, South Carolina is Sweet Carolina, California is Califeminia, and Illinois is Womanois. 😅
Several people have commented on this, jokingly, but could easily skew the numbers is the gay population. Denver and SLC, especially, have quite large gay populations, for some reason.
I was thinking about that too. Pride month is a big deal here in Salt Lake with a large festival downtown and a parade. I don’t think enough people understand how LGBTQ+ friendly Utah really is.
One potential explanation for Utah: polygamy. It's one of the few states where it's permitted, even if it is technically illegal. This tends to draw in men who want multiple wives from many outside states. While I'm sure there are more women in the polygamist towns, that's because they have so many men (either as children or immigrants from other states) that they actually have to kick some out in order to keep the ratios where they want them. Those men then tend to stay in the nearby towns.
To: Geography Geoff ---> I do not know where you got your figures / stats about Utah, but they do not match with what I saw. I lived for six years (2012 to 2018) in southern Utah County (The County where Provo City is) before I retired, and it seemed to me to be more like 49% male and 51% females. At least upon the I-15 corridor, which starts around St. George in the southwest corner of the state and goes up to the Idaho border. About the only place that there might be more males than females are in the coal mining areas such as Carbon County, or the turkey farms/ranches in San Pete County and the other rural mining areas.
Didn’t even need to watch the video. It’s because there are high paying jobs in the oil fields, lumber industry and other blue collar jobs that pay well
Let’s look at very specifically north and South Dakota, Wyoming in Montana and Idaho. There are not many cities that are very large. Certainly there are no cities where there’s over 1 million people a lot of industries that are there mining animal, husbandry, industrial lager, culture and outdoors heavy physical activity women are either gonna be able to adapt that by being born and raised or they gonna go elsewhere. The state of Utah and especially state of Colorado have more population than the others that I’ve mentioned but for instance Denver has maybe 700,000 residents and Salt Lake City has about 250,000 residence not exactly large metropolitan areas On top of that, only Colorado has a progressive set of policies and laws that would make it tolerable for women to live there. The other states have restrictions on abortion or some of them are leaning to things very aggressively like trying to monitor women to see if they might be ovulating or not, and trying to hold them accountable for leaving the state for abortions, not every woman is into that that might scare certain women off, making a life there and to leave to other places like a state that are not as overbearing The left coast is not far same with Nevada and Arizona with policies that are more in line with women’s rights and their freedom of choice
Idaho has a relatively low population but hosts an Airforce base and an air national guard base. Jobs might skew the numbers toward men. There are also agriculture jobs and a majority male semiconductor manufacturer. 13,000 more men isn't that ridiculous.
Being from Utah there's a reason women don't want to live around the highly misogynistic LDS church. The lack of separation between church and state drives a lot of people away from this state. I'm an atheist and I'm still here, but I often think about leaving because of this.

Cue the 1983 Miquel Brown song... "So many men, so little time!" History, geography, industry, isolation, more rural, dry cold climate... they all play some part in this. I did a county by county map once based on Census data, much of the western and northern halves of America, especially in the rural areas tend to be more male and childless, and with it more IQ and less crime/poverty/pregnancy out-of-wedlock because more people working and making money, and with higher-skilled, higher-risk jobs at that. While in the former Confederacy particularly along the Fall Line, more female and more children (except in Florida with the latter due to all the retirees), due to more fatherless families thanks to more of those bad things+less good things and skilled jobs, and again, history, geography and climate. Maybe it's the warmth that leads one to be more free to lie around since grow and fall down all year while in the cold, one has to have brains to be resourceful and accordingly plan ahead to survive the winter. JUST MY TWO CENTS...
Maybe "ring worm" was the problem. Because of the warm climate people walked around bare foot, which is how ring worm entered the body. One of the ways of combating ring worm was to bury people 6 feet under ground. Ring worm can't go up 6 feet of earth. Eventually, the ring worm problem was solved.

I respect those who respect me...
Respect is earned not given.
Me, being gay and choosing my next destination LOL
Thought the same exact thing! 😂

Denver has a thriving gay community.
I'm sure Denver must love the frequent AIDS and monkey pox outbreaks.
Denver also leads the nation in adult diaper sales.
Man I hope that doesn't mean what I think@@thebeatnumber
Great topic 👏 👍 Thanks 😃
Thank you for the video and explanation.
Greetings
Two of the many factors that play into this are resources and the environment. just like the weather for instance. If you don't learn to adapt and learn. You lose it. It's not like the weather stays the same throughout the year there. It can dramatically shift from 40 to -30 on the same day in the winter months. Things tend to break dramatically when this occurs. It can be shining and warm, and the next moment, it can be hyperthermia type of weather in the spring and fall when caught outside. Men have to fix, maintain, work, and adapt as men to the situation all the time for infrastructure purposes to maintain society or have nothing. It's not an easier task by any means when farther from the equator, the ocean, and the weather for resources to live. And proves why more people tend to live. Down south, or to the west and east coast. It's more beneficial.
Lol, I'd love to see the "rugged mountains" in ND
I got some funny nicknames for the more women dominated states. Instead of Florida, how about Feminida (get it, lol), Maine is Dame, Massachusetts is Massatutus, New Jersey is New Girly, South Carolina is Sweet Carolina, California is Califeminia, and Illinois is Womanois. 😅
That explains a lot 🤣🤣🤣
Like what? It doesn't make a difference what gender is dominant
Several people have commented on this, jokingly, but could easily skew the numbers is the gay population. Denver and SLC, especially, have quite large gay populations, for some reason.
I was thinking about that too. Pride month is a big deal here in Salt Lake with a large festival downtown and a parade. I don’t think enough people understand how LGBTQ+ friendly Utah really is.
One potential explanation for Utah: polygamy. It's one of the few states where it's permitted, even if it is technically illegal. This tends to draw in men who want multiple wives from many outside states. While I'm sure there are more women in the polygamist towns, that's because they have so many men (either as children or immigrants from other states) that they actually have to kick some out in order to keep the ratios where they want them. Those men then tend to stay in the nearby towns.
To: Geography Geoff ---> I do not know where you got your figures / stats about Utah, but they do not match with what I saw. I lived for six years (2012 to 2018) in southern Utah County (The County where Provo City is) before I retired, and it seemed to me to be more like 49% male and 51% females. At least upon the I-15 corridor, which starts around St. George in the southwest corner of the state and goes up to the Idaho border. About the only place that there might be more males than females are in the coal mining areas such as Carbon County, or the turkey farms/ranches in San Pete County and the other rural mining areas.
Funny stuff boss. 😆 Also good information to know. 👍
Geoff: There are 15,000 more men than women in Montana.
Me: They must all be gay, then. I bet they're all Californians.
Didn’t even need to watch the video. It’s because there are high paying jobs in the oil fields, lumber industry and other blue collar jobs that pay well
Denver is the Austin of Colorado. I love it there, it’s a bear city !
Let’s look at very specifically north and South Dakota, Wyoming in Montana and Idaho. There are not many cities that are very large. Certainly there are no cities where there’s over 1 million people a lot of industries that are there mining animal, husbandry, industrial lager, culture and outdoors heavy physical activity women are either gonna be able to adapt that by being born and raised or they gonna go elsewhere.
The state of Utah and especially state of Colorado have more population than the others that I’ve mentioned but for instance Denver has maybe 700,000 residents and Salt Lake City has about 250,000 residence not exactly large metropolitan areas
On top of that, only Colorado has a progressive set of policies and laws that would make it tolerable for women to live there. The other states have restrictions on abortion or some of them are leaning to things very aggressively like trying to monitor women to see if they might be ovulating or not, and trying to hold them accountable for leaving the state for abortions, not every woman is into that that might scare certain women off, making a life there and to leave to other places like a state that are not as overbearing
The left coast is not far same with Nevada and Arizona with policies that are more in line with women’s rights and their freedom of choice
In Wyoming, there is a beautiful woman behind every tree.
Thanks Geoff, love your content keep it up!
Awesome as always. Thank you.
Idaho has a relatively low population but hosts an Airforce base and an air national guard base. Jobs might skew the numbers toward men. There are also agriculture jobs and a majority male semiconductor manufacturer. 13,000 more men isn't that ridiculous.
Farming, a heavily male occupation, is also quite dangerous. A tractor falling on you is no fun.
No mention of how bias the legal systems can be. One percent of US males are incarcerated, down from one point three percent in 2013.
Probably because the jobs in those states require less air conditioned office jobs and more ranch hands and hard labor
Mountains and snow... The answer is mountains and snow.
The answer is at least partially the Military bases in all these states.
You could've also said "He"waii
Being from Utah there's a reason women don't want to live around the highly misogynistic LDS church. The lack of separation between church and state drives a lot of people away from this state. I'm an atheist and I'm still here, but I often think about leaving because of this.
You should leave then , let them have that one state. I'm an atheist too
@@blazer9547 I left 2 months ago to live in San Francisco. Never going back oh my god what a terrible culture and state government. Loving CA so much more!
@@blazer9547 It's hard when you are so attached to home. My birth family immigrated to Utah 6 generations ago as well. But poor healthcare options for my medical condition may finally force my hand.
@@veganvanguard8273 Yea the state government is definitely interesting in their level of democracy about matters. This is a state where voting definitely will not do anything because of a rogue far right legislature regarding some issues.
@@veganvanguard8273BWAHAHA. Are you really touting ‘California’s state governerment? You realize people are leaving there in droves to states like Texas, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and Tennessee, correct? I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised a Vegan prefers to live in San Francisco. Enjoy your superior ‘culture’ lol.
Cue the 1983 Miquel Brown song... "So many men, so little time!"
History, geography, industry, isolation, more rural, dry cold climate... they all play some part in this. I did a county by county map once based on Census data, much of the western and northern halves of America, especially in the rural areas tend to be more male and childless, and with it more IQ and less crime/poverty/pregnancy out-of-wedlock because more people working and making money, and with higher-skilled, higher-risk jobs at that.
While in the former Confederacy particularly along the Fall Line, more female and more children (except in Florida with the latter due to all the retirees), due to more fatherless families thanks to more of those bad things+less good things and skilled jobs, and again, history, geography and climate. Maybe it's the warmth that leads one to be more free to lie around since grow and fall down all year while in the cold, one has to have brains to be resourceful and accordingly plan ahead to survive the winter. JUST MY TWO CENTS...
I think your on to something but urban areas draw women, name something bad and its attached to urban areas.
Maybe "ring worm" was the problem. Because of the warm climate people walked around bare foot, which is how ring worm entered the body.
One of the ways of combating ring worm was to bury people 6 feet under ground. Ring worm can't go up 6 feet of earth.
Eventually, the ring worm problem was solved.
Will we get an episode soon, saying which states have the most women?
