Anyone know what makes Hmong so prevalent in WI? That was the most surprising to me on this map.

I would love to see this by county for more detail. My state has a different language than my county and I know the counties around me are different too

Pennsylvania Dutch could probably be classified alongside German; it’s a dialect of German (its name comes from “Deutsch”) not Dutch, and was brought to the US by Amish and Mennonites in the same wave of immigration after the German conservative clampdown in 1848.

Does Arkansas have a lot of Pacific Islanders or is that a different shade of red?
