Maine is pretty surprising.

Ya, lots of oldsters, and yeah, snowbirds, but spring break and summer influx for disneyworld are pretty big young numbers.

I’m sure the official numbers look at addresses registered. It won’t capture vacationers.

Shrug. The point is actually contrary. If they are older, they should be having bigger Covid numbers right now. Something is not right.

Your source is a bit dodgy.

Percentage of population over age 65

That is not median age which is the data point used to determine oldest populations.

Wanna bet that is flipped right now? I'm sure a lot of retired Mainiacs fly south for the winter, while Florida gains hundreds of thousands of snowbirds.
