Now overlay that map with a map of all the states with the largest populations of poor people.
In Turkey, a Tesla is very cheap compared to alternatives. By cheap I mean thrice as cheap.
It's not the same map. The east coast is rich as well. That being said, I'm guessing a Tesla is down the list from a proper closed sewage system, if you're in a poor black belt county, so no surprise it's pretty low in the deep south.
There's poor people in NY, of course, but so is there in Cali.
