We may be 48th in the country for education but damn it feels good to be towards the top on this one.

A new type of heat pump based washer/dryer combo unit that only requires a standard 110 outlet and no vent could significantly increase the number of washer/dryers in apartments in dense cities.

Does this count buildings that have shared laundry areas? I can’t find the original source.

It’s just a reverse correlation with states that have high density urban areas

Clothes washer sounds strange. It is washing machine unless you are counting washing boards and ringers too. I guess technically they are clothes washers.

This seems inaccurate. Does it count first nation territories as well? Because I feel New Mexico’s rate would be much lower if you included the Native American population.

Is this strictly houses or houses and apartments? I can’t even imagine buying a house that doesn’t have a laundry room

What’s up gang! Welcome back to People Live In Cities, the podcast where we act shocked that urban life is different. I’m your host Zaxyzn and today we’re diving into something totally crazy: people in huge high rises … don’t have washing machines! How do they even survive? We’ll probably never find out but today’s expert has a theory. But first a word from our sponsors Squarespace and introducing Rinse, the Uber of laundry pick up and delivery!

I’m stunned at how low these figures are 97% of UK households own a washing machine.

How is California so low? It seems insane that so many people don’t have their own one, especially for a wealthy state.
