Map Highlights



  • 👩‍🌾 Mississippi and Massachusetts lead the way! Both states have an equal percentage of female population at 51.5%. It's a great day for gender balance in these states!
  • 🏔️ The mountains of Alaska seem to be drawing in more men! With a female population percentage of 47.9%, it's the state with the lowest proportion of women. Maybe it's the allure of the wilderness?
  • 🏛️ The District of Columbia isn't just the nation's capital, it's also the state with the highest percentage of female population at 52.6%. Women are taking the lead in the heart of the nation!
