A survey is such as this is really meaningless..

We can rank order all 50 states on issues such as veterans population, and voter turnout in elections, but then we have to ask, are these criteria really the most important factors in patriotism?

Military service certainly would be. It's difficult to gauge that though because somebody can spend 15 years in a reserve component and not be considered a veteran. Likewise, volunteering is really subjective; what if they volunteer for a group that hates the country.

Personally the best typology report I've read was this one prepared by Pew: https://www.people-press.org/2005/05/10/profiles-of-the-typology-groups/ I think it reflects my own experience dealing with many types of people.
