Super Bowl XLIX will come down to the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks. Obviously, the majority of football fans in Washington state and Massachusetts will be rooting for their home teams, but what about the other 48 states?

Here at Estately we were curious about whether the other states had more Seahawks or Patriots fans. Since such information isn’t available in the U.S. Census we turned to Facebook data. By crunching the numbers of those who show an interest in each team on Facebook we were able to determine which states had more people who liked the Seahawks and which liked the Patriots. Overall, there are 28% more Patriots fans than Seahawks fans, so Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin can honestly claim that most people are against them. Seahawks fans are most abundant in the Pacific Northwest, primarily Washington state, Oregon, Idaho, and Alaska. There are more Seahawks fans than Patriots fans in Montana, Hawaii, Wisconsin, North Dakota, Utah, and Minnesota. Patriots fans are thick in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine. And for the rest of the remaining states, there’s definitely a higher number of Patriots fans than Seahawks fans.

And who knows? This information might be very useful for football fans trying to decide where to buy a home. And if not, we can at least guarantee that Estately.com will be incredibly useful to anyone trying to find a home.
