Where ESFPs (Entertainers) Stand Out

A scene representing the ESFP personality type (Entertainer). An adult female ESFP dancer has invited an ESFP male from the audience to join her on stage, and they are dancing joyfully. They are dressed in formal attire and move with exuberance and flair. Their facial expressions convey a sense of delight and enthusiasm as they revel in the moment. Two people sit at tables, happily watching the dancing from afar.

ESFPs (Entertainers) make up 3.9% of test results in the average country, but their share varies from place to place. Here’s where they’re most and least common.

All personality types

Based on 127,869,638 test results. Want to use this data for research, or have a suggestion? Get in touch.

Where does this data come from?
From people who took our free personality test over 12 months, from October 2025 to September 2026. We only use anonymous totals, never anyone’s individual results.
What are places compared with?
Countries are compared with the “average country”: the average of all ranked countries, with each country counting equally – so countries where lots of people take the test don’t outweigh the rest. Regional maps, like Europe’s, use the average of that region’s ranked countries, and U.S. states are compared with the U.S. as a whole.
Which results count?
Each completed test counts once, so someone who takes it twice counts twice. We leave out tests that look skipped or automated, and we score every language version of the test the same way, so places can be compared fairly. A country needs at least 10,000 results – plus enough for its population – to be ranked and shown on our maps.
How do we compare places?
We compare each country’s share of ESFPs with the average country, and each state’s with the U.S. as a whole. Differences under 5%, or too small to be sure of, count as “about as common.”
Are the results representative?
Not exactly: people choose to take our test online, so test-takers aren’t a perfect cross-section of any country. Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Turbulent people are probably a little more common among them everywhere. Because that tilt affects every place in much the same way, comparing places still works. Where very few people take the test, we can’t be as sure, so we don’t rank or map those countries.
Is the test only in English?
No – it’s available in 48 other languages, and results from every language are included.
