How well does that overlay with the superfund industrial cleanup site map?

That looks closer than I expected honestly. When I chose where to live, the quality and cleanliness of the major aquifers in the region was one of my main sticking points. I'd imagine the groundwater in the NE still has not recovered from all that industrial waste dumping.

How can you figure that information out? What do you do if you live somewhere that has bad water?

I have a theory on that I live in the cancer belt , a lot of this area has been mined and then strip mined ,,,, I think when shit was all disrupted it allowed gasses normally sealed underground out that cause the disease

I was warned to stay away from mined property in West Virginia.

Interesting about the gases; like an Egyptian booby trap.

I think proximity to major roads and highways greatly increases cancer risk as well.

It's too early yet but I upvoted because this is important to keep track of.

Looks like relative density by state. Except CA is throwing me off, but CA is fucking huge so it's not that ood. The odd ones are the small states in the NE being dark blue. Except those make sense to be from pollutants of the regional big cities.

TLDR; Cities cause cancer. This isn't new knowledge.

From south to NE is a natural wind pattern, you can track storms follow that. Lots of old industry through there, lots of contaminated water too. The NW could be Hanford site alone poisoning salmon, everyone eats it there...
