The midwest state that has become a factory for developing NFL players ranks ahead of Texas, Florida, California and Ohio.

DOUG SAMUELS JUL 3, 2024

At a rate of 12.5 NFL players per million residents, Iowa ranks just below states like Georgia (12.6), Alabama (12.7), and a bit further behind the national leaders of churning out NFL talent like Mississippi (14.5) and Louisiana (15).

https://footballscoop.com/news/theres-a-very-surprising-midwest-state-churning-out-nfl-talent

According to the data, the national average per state is 5.2 NFL players per million residents. States right around that national average include Michigan (5.4), North Carolina (5.7), and Texas (5.7).

Other relative surprises from the data:

Nebraska ranking higher than Texas (6.1)
Hawaii and Florida with the same (7.5)
Vermont is the only state with zero current NFL players
New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island all under 1 NFL player per million residents
Alaska (2.7) with a better figure than Arkansas (2.3), Washington (2.2), and North Dakota (2.6)
Georgia has FOUR times the number of NFL players as New York despite half the population.

Retirees bring Florida's numbers down with this one.

I'm still amazed how many rankings exist somewhere.  We should rank all the rankings, would get a ton of hits.

Odd town names in Georgia | WSAV-TV

I think "Between" is more odd.
