| Summary: | While the words "we are everywhere" can be frequently heard at gay and lesbian political events, this study provides the first empirical confirmation of the rallying cry. Drawing on data from the 2000 U.S. Census, this work offers a detailed geographic and demographic portrait of gay and lesbian families in all 50 states plus the top 25 U.S. metropolitan areas. These results, presented in more than 250 full-color maps and charts, both confirm and challenge anecdotal information about the spatial distribution and demographic characteristics of this community. A unique resource for the political and public policy communities, public health officials, social scientists, and anyone interested in gay and lesbian issues.--From publisher description. |
