this was my first thought. per capita would make more sense but then also like some people above where talking about museums and yeah there are like large city type museums and there are much smaller ones. My town has a historical society that basically runs a museum of the towns past but it would like fit in a large condo. Now the major city downtown has an art, natural history, science and industry, planetarium that are places people travel to see and our in buildings you can spend a whole day at and not see everything plus equaly interesting grounds. So there are museums and then there are museums.
