I travel all over the west. Northern Nevada is my playground. And I drive to Phoenix every year trying to take a different route each time. Until C0vid, my friend and I used to drive 150 or so miles to each lunch twice a month. We have been to Shasta Lake, Lake Tahoe, Virginia City, Yosemite, Bodega Bay, as well as others. We are getting old now and want to see as much as we can. I am 66 and he is 75. And I love New Mexico as well (I like buying green chili's in Hatch).

That relief map was awesome, as a Wisconsinite, it was really neat to see the “Driftless Area” along the Mississippi, a region where glacial drift did not occur. Really cool area to explore given how flat or rolling hilly the rest of the state is.

@@295g295 Your gut is correct, but there are two very different regions (Mississippi River Delta and Mississippi Delta) with very similar names, so any confusion is totally understandable. What you initially refer to is the correctly named Mississippi River Delta; not to be confused with the very much misnamed Mississippi Delta you also referenced, which is not actually part of the delta of the Mississippi River, but an alluvial floodplain located in NW Mississippi, roughly 300 miles north of the actual Delta. Specifically, the Mississippi River Delta is where the Mississippi River enters the Gulf of Mexico, and refers to a roughly three million acre area of mostly coastal wetlands at the mouth of the river. Apparently, this confusion is quite common. Wikipedia has put multiple annotations on every relevant page that make it very clear that they are not the same thing, and not to be confused with one another.

Many early Latter-Day Saint(Mormon) immigrants came from Scandinavia in addition to England during the mid-19th century, so seeing Utah having the highest percentage of people of Danish descent makes sense.

I really enjoyed several of your map series. Very informative and without an agenda of your own to keep the info unbiased. I just wanted to mention that the US government along with various charitable organizations settled refugees here in Fort Wayne, IN some years ago from what was formerly Burma, now Myanmar. We have around 10,000 here dating back to their civil war in the 90's, I believe, as well as more Burmese in Indy and other cities in Indiana. California also has a relatively large group. I thought I might get a small adjustment on your language/nationality data maps, and a pin for Fort Wayne.
I‘m from Luxembourg, so I‘m very glad you mentionned our country haha. Indeed, the majority of Luxembourgish migrants settled down in Iowa, Illinois or Wisconsin. The reason for that are the German an Belgium communities that were already there a bit earlier. Not only did the Luxembourger speak the same language (German and French), but they had also the same religion (catholic). All these elements made integration much more easier.
Wow - so I’m watching this on June 7, I never use my vacation days and they expire every year on June 30 (they don’t roll over), and here’s this guy giving me exactly the advice I need right now. Thanks!
As far as the US state/European heritage map goes, there's an explanation for Denmark and Utah. Mormon missionaries were particularly successful in Denmark (as opposed to other Scandinavian countries), resulting in a high percentage of converts and pioneer immigrants to Utah. And I'm descended from some of them!
Your mapa sir are so interesting. As a positive note I on Y wish your letters could be a little bigger as they are hard to read , but I thank you for your thorough explanation this channel is addictive. You are doing a fine job. Thanks

Hello from Canada! Love your videos. These map videos are a great starter for those of us that want to understand our world more intimately. I have a Indigenous people’s of North American land claims and spoken language map as my desktop. I am proudly from the Mexico of the North and I love you right back. People in my region are intimidated by migrant workers, but I have laboured wither literally. Mexican men and women are dedicated to family and suffer enormous distances and our horrible winters to keep there elders and loved ones healthy and educated!
Howdy Kyle!....love your video series. Your enthusiasm for maps is evident. I'm right there with you. As a teenager, and prob before then even, I think I was the only kid who listed my dream job as working for Rand McNally.
(11:00) However, Monopoly has been localised, so for example the British version has London streets, and that version is also popular in Australia. The French version has streets from Paris, and so on.
Oh, it’s localized everywhere. Even in the US, it seems like every town and university has its own version. Wouldn’t be surprised if there weren’t 500+ versions in the States alone. Yet just about everyone sticks with the classic.
As a native of Idaho in of the capital Boise, I absolutely love to see your observation that Spain has a big prevalence in our state, however if you would like to be more specific it’s actually Basque people. The city of Boise has a very rich and storied influence of Basque culture that many people are not aware of and even has its own special street in our city. It is widely embraced among people of Idaho for its delicious food, vibrant and welcoming people, and rich history. I just thought I would mention this because as a minority group of Europe they don’t get the recognition they deserve sometimes and in Idaho yes it is Spanish people but more specifically Basque who come from Spain that influence so heavily. Impressive how well many of them speak three languages.
That is interesting! I expect most of the states with a plurality of Spanish Hispanics are from the southwest, where Spain actually had settlers and colonies. Kyle didn't take the time to mention, but, yeah, Spain held the southwest and had colonizers.

Vietnamese doesn’t surprise me for Texas. Growing up I went to a Catholic Church that was English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Huge culture here. We’d walk out of English service and they had Vietnamese food for sell before the Vietnamese language service. It was always so normal to me lol
One reason people don't take a vacation is that I use to work for a company that if you asked about it they said we will let you know when you can take it and before you know it the year is up.
The reason that South Texas has such a long life expectancy is that there are lots of retirement communities there. You can't have died young if you are already old.
Kyle, hot off your recent State tournament, perhaps it would be more fitting to adopt "This is Geography King . . . you out." as your closing comment. Go Gophers!
Fun fact: all voter registrations, information and signage in Houston by law MUST be printed in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and mandarin. Our 4 most spoken languages.
Just a short note Kyle on the Brexit map correlation - Wales voted to leave the EU. You are right about Scotland. None of our regions voted in favour of leaving the EU. Wales and most importantly, England voted to leave the EU. Scotland voted nearly two thirds in favour of staying in the EU and Northern Ireland voted to stay too. But as we say in Scotland, FTQ (look up at your own leisure).
Proud to be of Polish heritage, and living in Illinois!! The *only* state where Polish is the second-most spoken language! There are some pockets in Pittsburgh and Milwaukee, but even in my town of Buffalo Grove (NW suburbs of Chicago) just going to the local grocery store is a polyglot! Polish, some Russian, a bit of Spanish, some Indian (Asian), Mandarin...it's guaranteed that I will never hear *just* English in any store.
That is similar to the way I grew up in Hamilton, Ontario, Can. In the older parts of town, particularly central and east end, you could hear almost every language spoken in the world.
I have been a Geography nerd my whole life and I really enjoy this channel. Thanks for the great videos. I am always looking for new things to learn about this great subject
Greetings from Round Rock, Texas~! Can't help but notice the album cover of DiMeola, McLaughlin and DeLucia...Great taste in music Kyle. Love the channel~!
6:34 Germany is colored wrong. We have a minimum of 24 paid vacation days over here so we should be the darkest shade of blue. But still great video as always!
(6:20) Not only does Sweden have a high number of vacation days; it's also a legal requirement that you should be allowed a 4 weeks uninterrupted vacation during summer. It doesn't state you get to choose when to have it, since that wouldn't work. But you will get an uninterrupted vacation if requested.
I love maps. And I love watching your videos. Would have loved to have you as my Geography teacher when I was in school. And yeah - that topographical map at the end is one of my favorites. I could just stare at it for a long time. Fascinating.
Kyle, I absolutely love this series (I love your videos in general, but especially anything to do with maps). Fascinating how Tagalog is the most common language spoken in California, but the highest Asian ethnicity is Chinese rather than Filipino. How would you account for that? My guess is that many many of the Chinese in California have been there for well over a hundred years, and though they identify as Chinese ethnically, they don't speak any of the Chinese languages. Or it could just be that there are three major Chinese languages and only one Filipino. Or a combination of those things. What do you think? I also particularly love the Friday Night in San Francisco album cover you have up in this video. One of my favorites as well. ♥️ And finally, congratulations on such an excellent channel!
Yeah maybe some of those of Chinese descent don't speak the languages. Also I think Filipino migrants might be a slightly newer demographic than the Chinese migrants. Hi from Oakland, CA!
Yeah I definitely think it's because of the fact that there isn't a whole lot of immigration from China anymore and most people of Chinese descent are 3rd generation or more. China is still poor but better off than 50 years ago and fewer people are leaving. When I worked for Monterey County Emergency Management we'd print off flood and earthquake info in English, Spanish, and Tagalog. What's kind of ironic is that English is widely spoken in the Philippines.
You're from the Central Valley and live in Chattanooga, I'm from Modesto and live in Macon County, TN. Love these videos, by the way. I found your channel a few days ago and have watched quite a few of your videos. I'm especially enjoying this map series.
I would be interested to see that Home affordability map if you added in property taxes. You have NJ, the State I live in, as 48% of people can afford a home, but the property taxes are so high here, I'll bet it's a lot fewer people who can actually afford a home in practice.

Greetings from Round Rock, Texas~! Can't help but notice the album cover of DiMeola, McLaughlin and DeLucia...Great taste in music Kyle. Love the channel~!
Saw that too--monsters of guitar!
6:34 Germany is colored wrong. We have a minimum of 24 paid vacation days over here so we should be the darkest shade of blue. But still great video as always!
Love that album Friday Night in San Francisco. Brilliant guitarists
love this series and your videos
Thank you!
These videos are just superb.
I love this series. 🤠
(6:20) Not only does Sweden have a high number of vacation days; it's also a legal requirement that you should be allowed a 4 weeks uninterrupted vacation during summer. It doesn't state you get to choose when to have it, since that wouldn't work. But you will get an uninterrupted vacation if requested.
I am moving to Sweden now.
Love watching all your videos. Reminds me of my undergrad years as a geography major (now science teacher).
I love maps. And I love watching your videos. Would have loved to have you as my Geography teacher when I was in school. And yeah - that topographical map at the end is one of my favorites. I could just stare at it for a long time. Fascinating.
Kyle, I absolutely love this series (I love your videos in general, but especially anything to do with maps).
Fascinating how Tagalog is the most common language spoken in California, but the highest Asian ethnicity is Chinese rather than Filipino. How would you account for that? My guess is that many many of the Chinese in California have been there for well over a hundred years, and though they identify as Chinese ethnically, they don't speak any of the Chinese languages. Or it could just be that there are three major Chinese languages and only one Filipino. Or a combination of those things. What do you think?
I also particularly love the Friday Night in San Francisco album cover you have up in this video. One of my favorites as well. ♥️
And finally, congratulations on such an excellent channel!
Yeah maybe some of those of Chinese descent don't speak the languages. Also I think Filipino migrants might be a slightly newer demographic than the Chinese migrants. Hi from Oakland, CA!
Yeah I definitely think it's because of the fact that there isn't a whole lot of immigration from China anymore and most people of Chinese descent are 3rd generation or more. China is still poor but better off than 50 years ago and fewer people are leaving. When I worked for Monterey County Emergency Management we'd print off flood and earthquake info in English, Spanish, and Tagalog. What's kind of ironic is that English is widely spoken in the Philippines.

@@margefoyle6796 Ayyy!
I absolutely love your videos! Thank you!
Anyone know where I can find the last map? I would like to look at that more
You're from the Central Valley and live in Chattanooga, I'm from Modesto and live in Macon County, TN. Love these videos, by the way. I found your channel a few days ago and have watched quite a few of your videos. I'm especially enjoying this map series.
nice DiMeola/McLaughlin/De Lucia record
I love DiMeola with Chick.
‘Kiss my Axe’
Once again great presentation. Thanks
Super “funformative!” to coin the phrase. Thank you Kyle! Take care
I would be interested to see that Home affordability map if you added in property taxes. You have NJ, the State I live in, as 48% of people can afford a home, but the property taxes are so high here, I'll bet it's a lot fewer people who can actually afford a home in practice.

Happy Easter, Kyle🐰
I love those topographical relief (I think is what it's called, you may have said it), raised maps like at the end. I have sat here with Google Maps, zooming in and out, and not realize I'd been playing with it for over 5 hours. Guess that makes me a map nerd too. I'm cool with that.
It’s so cool to know that you’re from the valley, I am also from there and I love looking at typography maps and looking at our valley!
Great video George King...n cool maps too🙂
Another great video Kyle! So educational...seems the best place to get trustworthy data now is from our geography!
Stuff like this is the best innovation that the human species has to offer
