I said 'rhetorical' question. :)

So if we take Joel's four highest numbers and divide by population:
CA = 1.4 x 10^-5 Vanagons/Person
FL = 0.5 x 10^-5 V/P
OR = 2.6 x 10^-5 V/P
WA = 1.8 x 10^-5 V/P

And the winner is Oregon!  By Unca Joel's list, the highest density of
Vanagons per person is in the state of Oregon where there are  2.6 Vanagons
per 10,000 people. :)
