CWN Editor's Note: “Between 2010 and 2020, many counties across North and South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Michigan saw drops in total religious adherents of at least 10%,” according to the report. “That same decline appeared in Pennsylvania, New York and Massachusetts, as well.”

“However, South Florida and many of the least-populous counties in Texas close to the border with Mexico saw notable growth, as did parts of New Mexico and Arizona.”
