    I wonder if this map just has darker colors for (some of) the low population density areas. If there are only 5 people in a zone, and one is a kook who sees ufos, that’s 20% of the population in that region who have spotted a ufo! The zone next to it with 5 people has a kook who maybe believes in werewolves, so they get a light square on this map.

      Yeah it’s not adjusted per capita. About as dumb as the map showing UFO sightings mainly in US because they used US statistics.

        It says that it’s per capita in the image: “Reported UFO sightings per 100k residents”.
