See an ANOVA coming soon. Average income levels might be another factor. Collecting all these data is quite an effort. Such analyses on an even larger scale, a job for big data, ought to be happening. Governments have better access but I doubt the skills, or for the shame of it, the interest.
Over the last few days I've built up a richer data set from various sources: Census.gov, Virginia Department of Education, Virginia Department of Elections. But, yes. Surely there are people better situated than folks on the outside to explore all the policy-relevant phenomena of interest: the effects of vaccines; the effects of school closures; the effects of "gender-affirming" therapies; etc. Government-controlled data and science is a big problem.
