There simply isn’t a Christmas without Old St. Nick, as the iconic movie The Year Without a Santa Claus so brilliantly illustrates.
Unless, of course, you own Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania is the state with the lowest belief in Santa Claus among the states in the United States, according to a study done and published by Preply.
Strangely enough, the Keystone State landed in eighth place for having the best Christmas spirit.
It’s also noteworthy that Hawaii, a state well-known for its beaches and pleasant climate, placed in first place for having the strongest belief in Santa. The people of Utah are brimming with the joy of Christmas.
Utah may not be the first state that comes to mind when one thinks of celebrations, but if you take into account that it is the location of the Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert and a popular vacation spot for those looking for a white Christmas, you’ll begin to see why its citizens are so festive! The report says.
Utahns obviously have plenty of Christmas enthusiasm to go around, as evidenced by the high search trends connected to Christmas, which are probably caused by the state’s many Christmas services and holiday markets (like the fantastic Salt Lake City Christkindlmarkt).
These conclusions were reached by the website’s researchers after they examined Christmas-related Google search data. For the final rankings, they then separated the results by state.
