Personality snapshot
Introverts only just outnumber Extraverts among these test-takers, but that near-even split is enough to rank fourth in the nation for Extraversion. Respondents are also slightly more Intuitive and Judging than the U.S. as a whole, while their Feeling and Turbulent leanings sit right at the national norm.
Diplomats are the largest Role, and Explorers such as ESTPs (Entrepreneurs) are a little scarcer than usual. ENFJs (Protagonists) are the standout. Outgoing, imaginative, warm, and organized, they match the group’s leanings neatly and are 12% more common here than nationally.
