Each year when the holidays roll around, everyone has that one Christmas movie they can’t wait to watch—and apparently, so does every state. CableTV.com examined Google Trends and AMC’s top 20 Christmas movies to come up with a state-by-state analysis showing what the most popular Christmas movies are across the United States.
Home Alone, Elf, and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation take the top spots across large parts of the country, followed by other classics like Miracle on 34th Street and Scrooged. Some of our favorites didn’t make the list, but it’s still a pretty good representation that can help us understand what our neighbors cherish during the holidays.
