It varies from state to state. Most states are well above the global average literacy rate. 13 states are below the global average. Some are well below. The states with the four lowest average literacy rates are the four most populous states: California, Texas, Florida and New York. It’s likely that there is significant variance within each of these states, likely correlated with socioeconomic status.
This seems weird. Where’s mississippi? Or oklahoma? Unless you’re counting the total number of illiterate people at which point you might as well just say California leads the nation and people per capita
