Methodology: How We Measured The Most Historically Racist Places In The Tar Heel State

n order to rank the how kinky a city is, we simply had to see which cities in North Carolina purchased the most sex toys from online erotic adult toy and novelty powerhouse Adam & Eve. They provided us with purchase information in 2015.

It’s pretty easy to figure it out, actually, when you know the cities in North Carolina are buying adult toys.

Saturday Night Science at it’s finest as there’s no beter way than to solve this argument at a bar.

We caculated all the data on a per capita basis, meaning these are orders on a per-person basis, not a raw number of total dollars spent or number of orders. That keeps us from ranking the largest cities at the top since they have the most people.

Additionally, we only looked at the 112 places in North Carolina with over 5,000 people.

The kinkiest cities in North Carolina based on this methodology are Rocky Mount, Hickory, Hendersonville, Morehead City, Cramerton, Mocksville, Sanford, Southern Pines, Summerfield, and Raleigh.
