Weird but then again weird is what Portland aims for. I got some unkind comments once when I was dancing with my cousin at a street dance. He is such a distant cousin that I don't know exactly how we're related (his grandmother and my grandmother's grandmothers were sisters). So I think inbreeding is pretty taboo.

That would explain a lot. Sadly I’ve lived in Oregon my entire life. I can confirm I didn’t marry a cousin or sister.

Other articles show other states are highest:

9)South Carolina
8) Tennessee
7) Louisiana
6) Oklahoma
5) Arkansas
4) Alabama
3) Mississippi
2) Kentucky
#1...West Virginia!

And I found at least three other articles with different orders of inbreeding.  Kentucky was often a top three contender.
