Sara, you think of everything.. Good job
Interesting statistics.
what is interesting, if you combine, WI,Il,MN, you have 429 trials, and most of those are now indoor trials, most in about a 4 hour or less drive from Milwaukee, then ad in MI, IN, which gives us 219 more for 648 trials within a couple hour drive more…again, most are indoor climate controlled…who would have thought this sport would have exploded this way from the 90’s of us crazy people driving 8 hours plus 6-8 times a year to attempt to hit a contact! amazing!!
Wow – that’s a huge agility area!

Awesome! Thanks!! 🙂
Are you going to do a USDAA map too?
The USDAA past events calendar is not publicly available.
I think it would be even more interesting to see the data by mileage … obviously TX and CA are huge states, so it makes sense that they would have more agility trials than a smaller state. Maybe someone could do a similar analysis except compare major cities and agility trials that are within 2 or 3 hour drive of those cities (ex: how many of the TX trials were within 2 hours driving distance of DFW?)
CA tops the list however its a 12 hour drive from one end to the other, so doesnt give a true picture.. Big plus is the weather makes trials available all year round.IMO people in smaller states travel interstate more frequently.say they Friends in WA usually travel 4 to 5 hours and stay in motels in order to compete.
Totally agree Jean – Plus the data does not account for the fact that the 356 trial days are concurrent
If you are trying to identify hot spots it may be more revealing to see the results for each state in a per capita basis.
Unfortunately, there are only three Agility trials (all AKC) that take place in Arkansas each year. Sure wish we had more USDAA trials in this state.
