The Flat Earther next door: These are the US states with highest share of conspiracy theorists, based on residents’ internet search history… so do YOU live in a flat or round state?

Earth’s greatest minds have known our world is round since at least as far back as the day Pythagoras made his calculations in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago.
But as you might have guessed from fighting with relatives and old friends on Facebook, as many as 10 percent of Americans still believe the earth is flat, according to survey data compiled in 2021.
If you’re looking for a place offline to get away from conversations about ‘Flat Earth’ conspiracy theories (or maybe where to go to join your fellow true believers), a new analysis of Google searches across all 50 US states might help.
Die-hard ‘Flat Earthers’ may want to bundle up before relocating to Alaska, whose residents searched the most for information on the widely discredited theory.
And those looking to move on from the ‘Flat Earth’ debate entirely may want to find space in the densely populated state of New Jersey, which had the lowest interest in researching the topic online per 10,000 residents.
Find out below if you live in a ‘Flat State’ or a ‘Round State.’
