Reply to comment by shanem in State of Washington has highest average number of sex partners , at 54.8. Does that surprise you? by walklover1212

Na a couple thousand people is actually quite statistically significant for the country. That being said, I'm sure there's a metric fucktons of flaws with this survey because there's no way in hell it's accurate. Doesn't pass the smell test.

A couple thousand people is probably good enough for getting the average of the country, but a little over a hundred is probably insufficient for getting the average in this part of the country. Sample size is really all that matters, not sample size as a ratio of a whole.
