Greetings from New England, U.S.A.
Tom Brady leads his New England Patriots to the Super Bowl, and on that hallowed game day, searchers take to their computers to solve an important geographical mystery: "where is new england"?
Some of these users have the impression that New England might be a city ("what state is new england in"); some have the whole "region" concept down but need to remind themselves which states qualify ("new england states," "map of new england states," "new england usa map").
We're relieved to report that residents of the states that do make up New England remain sure of their place in the region. We heard nary a search peep on "where is new england located" from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Instead, searchers in the 2008 host state of Arizona led this year's investigations, followed by Louisiana, Washington, Colorado, Missouri, and California.
