    Here is a map of how many level three fast chargers are available in each US state.

    Let’s use Texas as an example here. There are 243 fast chargers in an area of 695,662km2. That’s 1 charger for every 2862 km2. Not great coverage.

    That’s not nearly so helpful so let’s take a look at the distribution with each state:

    You can see that most of these EV stations are located around larger metropolitan areas. If you live outside of those areas, electric cars are not really, very useful. That graphic, even though this is from 2022 that the metric is there a three times more gas stations, per capita than there are chargers.
