TRAILER PARK BOYS
Number of residents identified by the census as living in a Mobile Home

RANK/CITY/NUMBER OF MOBILE HOMES
1. Nashville, TN 4107
2. Auburn, AL 2503
3. Columbia, MO 1737
4. Lexington, KY 1636


A bit of a misnomer
With a MSA of 500,000, 1,636 is only about 3/10ths of 1%. I think they did away with trailer parks in the 1970's or 1980's and Lexington is a merged government (city and county) so any that exist are holdovers that were grandfathered in. Columbia has about a MSA of 213,585 / 1,737 is closer to 8/10ths of 1 percent

I did the math on trailer parkiness. MSAs don't matter, cities are what these stats are from. From Most Trailer Parky to the least.

Residents per mobile home:

1. Auburn - 23
2. Starkville - 44
3. Columbia Mo- 65
4. Oxford - 72
5. Fayetteville - 90
6. Gainesville - 104
7. Tuscaloosa - 112
8. Athens - 145
9. Nashville -148
10. Knoxville - 167
11. Lexington - 186
12. College Station -214
13. Baton Rouge - 290
14. Columbia SC - 309

I hate myself for spending time doing that.

Most Baptist


The numbers are % of church members, not overall residents.

For example: 47.2% of Oxford's residents are religiously affiliated, and 52.9% of those are baptist.

True. It just seemed weird to me that Tuscaloosa had far and away the lowest German population % of all SEC cities despite having the largest Mercedes Benz manufacturing operation in North America.
