What did each state, including Colorado, Google most in 2016? The answers can be hilarious, strange, embarrassing and telling.
The folks at Estately are responsible for crunching the numbers, as they did for a 2015 most-Googled survey we also spotlighted.
Once again, some states have more than one Googling favorite — a lot more, in several cases. Others have just one or two, suggesting that hive-mindedness extends to the Internet.
We picked one favorite selection for each state, with Colorado's very understandable pick saved for last. That's followed by an Estately graphic with the site's top choices. Click to see the original post.
