What do you mean where does Alcoholism occur? Do you mean where in the body does the problem occur or where in a geographical location?

If you want to know more about the reasons why people are alcoholics you might want to read some support forums or websites with articles that would give you more insight to the disease / addiction that will allow you to come up with your own answer.

Geographically alcoholism occurs anywhere there is alcohol. It is just like any other substance that people choose to abuse. Eventually they develop a physical or emotional need for that substance and become addicted.
