Men Living With Men

Back to An Outsider Looking In

Back to Home Page

         I could not find hard data that listed number of gay men for each zip code but I was able to find men living with men. While there are reasons for men to live together outside of a romantic relationship I thought that the possibility for some of these numbers including homosexual couples high enough to correlate the numbers. With a finding of   

 -.184, a significant number was not found. Not finding correlation significance makes since considering all of the various outside factors pulling on the number. Looking for gay clubs in certain areas also proved to be inconclusive. It was very hard to find them and the few that I did find were in areas that had very low AIDS rates and had very poor information posted about them on the web.

            I correlated the numbers of women living with women so as not to be biased or miss out on an affected group of people but the significance for this group was even lower than it was for men living with men; it was 0.017.
