What is Colorado Scared of the Most?

Oct 25, 2022, 5:47 PM

Everybody has something that freaks them out, but what’s the thing that scares most of us?

A new study looked into Google data to figure out what people in every state FEAR the most.

And overall, the most common fear in the country is . . . anthropophobia, which is a fear of other people. Pretty sure it’s coronavirus-related.

In Colorado you’d expect something that could actually hurt you like snakes or spiders or bears… But no, we are most sacred of the dark???!

In other states there are plenty of other pandemic-related fears that seem to be lingering too. . . including fears of being alone, the outside, and germs.

And finally, a quick shout out to the people in Montana and New Hampshire, who are still keeping it real with a classic old school fear: They’re all still afraid of CLOWNS.

(Here’s a map with every state’s fear.)
