Title: Jacksonville 15th Gayest City in US
Post by: finehoe on March 20, 2015, 10:59:16 AM
A new analysis of Gallup survey data offers the most detailed estimates yet about where people who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender live.

The Gallup analysis finds the largest concentrations in the West — and not just in the expected places like San Francisco and Portland, Ore. Among the nation's 50 largest metropolitan areas, Denver and Salt Lake City are also in the top 10.

On the other hand, some of the East Coast places with famous gay neighborhoods, including in New York, Miami and Washington, have a smaller percentage of their population who identify as gay — roughly average for a big metropolitan area. The least gay urban areas are in the Midwest and South.

So if we passed the HRO would we then attract more gays and become the most gayest city??

Sounds like a golden organizing opportunity for the local Democratic Party.
