    I’m curious how this correlates to things like counties with vacation hotspots and the like, as Cape Cod is marked as less than 10% but I know for a fact that that county has the highest rates of drug addiction and homelessness in the state and I can only conclude that that isn’t really showing because of how much of the county is vacation homes and how the average working poor are outpriced from the area.

      Same with Garrett County in Western Maryland; lots of multi-million dollar vacation houses that border Maryland’s largest lake, despite there being few job opportunities in the county as a whole.
