Inbreeding can occur in any region, but it is often associated with isolated communities or populations with limited genetic diversity. States with rural, less populated areas, such as West Virginia and Kentucky, have been cited in discussions about inbreeding due to historical factors like geographic isolation and cultural practices. However, comprehensive and accurate data on inbreeding rates can be difficult to obtain, making it challenging to definitively identify a state with the most inbreeding.
