Most golf courses per capita, North Dakota with 123 courses for fewer than 700,000 people. Hawaii is #20. Interesting that so many of the golf course-rich states are in the frozen part of the country. The top 11 are North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Wyoming, Nebraska, Vermont, Montana, Maine, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan.
Fewest golf courses per capita, California with 1,140 courses for over 37 million people. Alaska was a good guess, they're #49. Texas is in the bottom five.
Minor interesting sub-note: the USGA headquarters is in Far Hills, New Jersey -- a state that ranks #46 in most golf courses per capita.
