Notes: Given that the US has an even ratio of males to females, which is also shown on county level, there is no enough variation in gender ratio on county level to account for the variation in the dependent variable. For this reason, the gender ratio on county level was not included in the regression analysis. This consideration is also applied to the regression analysis in Table 3–5. ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01
