With that said, we have 10.2% of our residents with an LTC.

if the average household has 2 kids then that means that 1 in 5 adults you come across should be LTC.

If accurate that's really incredible. I bet that your zip has very low crime, too.

You are correct. We have a very low crime rate. Violent crime is minimal.

So why is everyone so sceered that they have to carry guns???

We are just a bunch of sheepdogs.

A rate showing the number of licensees in that ZIP vs total population in that ZIP and/or vs. total population in that ZIP that could theoretically be licensed (i.e. minus children, felons, non-permanent resident aliens, etc) would be more interesting.

But that would be more work and reporters are lazy.
