Jackson have the 10th largest Black LGBT population in the country. So perhaps that's why.

Percentage maybe but definitely not population

It’s Jackson so I’d actually by that it’s by total population.

The total population of Jackson is 175k.
The metro is about 500k
I can assure you that they can't have the 10th largest LGBT black population in the US.
It most definitely would have to be the 10th largest by percentage.
Any of the top 15 metros in the US would have a larger gay population than the entire population of Jackson

Pawtucket 62
Cranston 57
East Providence 64
Narragansett 50

Stamford 100

Heavily Catholic and insular Rhode Island is very ugly.

Southern New England could do better.

Pardon my mistake. From Wikipedia:

"The state capital, Jackson, ranks tenth in the nation in concentration of African-American same-sex couples. "

It's indeed quite odd, to say the least.

Can’t speak on Miami but I’m wondering if Houston score is the way it is due to Houston’s city limits expanding way beyond the core of the city. I’d assume maybe if the city limits was just in the 610 loop maybe it’d be a 100 but when you have the city limits stretching out to conservative areas then I can see how it could get that rating. Comes with annexing so much land.
