    interesting, but i wish this map were about something other than miles traveled, as this number is skewed (in a bad way) by things like long commutes and urban sprawl

      Arguably that’s a more useful measure though, because it’s where EVs could be making the biggest difference in emissions.

    Chester County PA is one of the hottest spots in Pennsylvania, yet it’s impossible to find any chargers there.

    “The areas with the most EV activity are generally those with better-developed charging infrastructure, as well as higher-income households that can more easily afford the electric car premium.”

    Whodathunk right?

    I was talking to my mother in law at thanksgiving. She’s from a tiny town in Kansas. I looked on PlugShare and see nine different charging stations within five miles of me here near Los Angeles. I saw zero in the entire town of El Dorado.

    I can see the issue.

      If you can charge at home it doesn’t matter if the town doesn’t have a public charger. As long as there’s one within ~200 miles in the directions one would road trip in.

    Just what is the source of this data? How was it calculated? Since this comes from a company it would be good to see the underlying methodology.

    This is a really bad, almost useless map. Using electric vehicle miles traveled just gives you something approximating a population density map.
