Zombie density map.

The map reveals two important spatial patterns. First, much of the world lacks any content mentioning "zombies" whatsoever. Second, and related, the highest concentrations of zombies in the Geoweb are located in the Anglophone world, especially in large. The results either provide a rough proxy for the amount of English-language content indexed over our planet, or offer an early warning into the geographies of the impending zombie apocalypse.

Hmm, looks like there's a fair concentration in Naperville. Are you adequately prepared?

Interesting that the concentration around New Orleans is low & Haiti it's non-existent.

I say its fake.

Damn. We are fat with Zombies up here! I should have known when my neighbor started moaning about brains and walking with his arms outstretched.

Warning.

Warning.

I went out for a hamburger down at the beach and they seem to be congregating at the hamburger place. there were so many of them. I was the only one that wasn't a Zombie. Hold on a minute, I'll just go and look in the mirror and report back in a moment that I'm OK.

As suspected, my plan to quickly evacuate to central KS with my in-laws should yield the fewest zombies. Excepting my mother in law of course.

You didn't need to consult the map to know that, right?

Well, it seems that Greenland, Iceland and Madagascar are the places to go...

This map should come in handy for Unimog salesmen.
