I was born and raised in Washington State and the summers growing up were pretty glorious–75F, low humidity, and nary a drop of rain for ~2 months. A few warm nights, but fans were always more than sufficient. Thanks to climate change I know those summer temps are trending up, so I suspect that percentage will increase. I’ve been living in Minnesota for the past 12 years and actually made it a couple of summers before caving and buying a window AC unit for the bedroom, but…it was rough.

It’s a bit misleading because I’d say more than half of the places with AC have central air, so only one unit serves the entire house.

Who are these people in Alaska with AC?

All those „most comfortable temperature maps“ need to look at this.

I have only seen one in Europe my entire life.
I envy the cheap american energy prices for people to afford it blasting.

Air conditioning is up there with the all time greatest inventions. My parents live in northern New England and one summer I went there and it was mid 90s. No air conditioning. Absolutely miserable. I slept in the unfinished basement on a cot. Really appreciate my air conditioning

Why so low in Hawaii? Gets pretty hot there I’d imagine

And the government wants everyone to drive EVs? Can our grid handle it?

I feel bad for that 4% in FL that has no AC.

That’s going to have to change with global warming. Building codes need to change and require air conditioning.

Love the dropoff between the Dakotas and Montana. Driving across during the summer, you quickly know why.

As a Floridian I cannot possibly imagine not.. having an air conditioner.

Iowa is the highest state for some reason. And yes, I know they have hot and humid summers. But it’s still funny that they’re #1.

AC eats too much energy aka money and is bad for the environment.

What would an “at least 2 air conditioners” graph look like?

San Francisco and north coast is doing a lot of heavy lifting to reduce air conditioning rates in California.

WV being colder than its northern neighbors is something ive always found interesting and you see it on this map

NC here – no Air Conditioning.
However, I’ve never seen temps at home get above 87 degrees.

My house is the air conditioner 🤓

This seems inaccurate. Ive lived all over the country and never had one.

I’m surprised Wisconsin, where I live, is so high. I thought it would be around 70-80%. A lot of old houses don’t have AC.

My family in Pennsylvania held out till 2021. We just couldn’t take it anymore, the summers became too humid. We’re progressively getting wetter and hotter summers here in my opinion. When it’s not wet, it’s even hotter though

PNW used to be much lower. As someone who used to look at this data frequently, Oregon was closer 50-60% just 20 years ago.
Climate change is real.
