Wow, that is an interesting stat -- I thought it might be per capita, but it's not! And it's not even downtowns, either. It appears to be all zip codes.
So Austin has the zip code with the most bars in the entire nation... including some Manhattan zips with 80,000+ people. That is suprising.

I believe it's a ratio.

It's a ratio. An interesting statistic. Interestingly boring, but interesting.

One year back in the '90s, we were also #1 in the country for high school marijuana use. Glad to see Austin keeps representing where it counts.
