Today in important, data-driven journalism: A new analysis by the real estate brokerage firm Redfin has ranked American cities by toilets per capita, and it appears that a number of U.S. metros are flush with porcelain thrones. King among them? Boulder, Colorado, where there are 102 residential toilets per 100 people. As Redfin puts it, "if you’re home shopping in Boulder and can’t find a three-bedroom home with three bathrooms, you’re doing something wrong."

Redfin's Top 10 list shows that the country's houses are truly chock-full of toilets. Washington, D.C., may be the number two place to go number two, but it still has 98 toilets per 100 people.
