Eastern States
 

I notice that the vast majority of new and/or active members are from the Eastern states of your country
Is this a demographic thing in relation to Cubs manufacturing plant or just a quirk that means absolutely nothing
They do grow grass/lawn on the western side of your country , that is not a guess anyway I am a curious Australian

Your speculation is about as good as mine. I can tell you, without a doubt, that the State of Pennsylvania, has the most OCC members.
The original IH Cub Cadet manufacturing factory at the time, was in Louisville Kentucky. I am guessing IH started a Wholesale Distributor Network from Louisville, and the Eastern US had a head start.

If anyone has further input, please let us know.

More money in the east, not much in the west at that time, except CA and Las Vegas...

I would say it is the north east also. Not as many Cubs south of Virginia. A quick look on CL and there isn't 1 Cub Cadet garden tractor in the northern half of Georgia. I just looked in the Picksburg, PA CL and there are 18 Cub Cadet garden tractors listed.

So what would be a popular lawn/garden tractor over on the west coast ?
What other brands are popular on the east coast ?
Out here Husqvarna , Deere , Kubota , Toro and Cub/MTD are the most common

Cub Cadets were very popular here in NC in their/my early years and for a long time. I mowed with my dads when I was 8 years old, 60 years ago. I’ve had one of my own since I got married in 1975. In the South the zero-turns took a big bite out of the conventional Cub market. That and IHC selling them off. I’ve had a Gravely Zero since 2004 for mowing duty but never got rid of my 129 I’ve had since the mid-1980’s and a 71 and 125 before it. Looks to me like snow removal is a big part of the Cub duties in the northeast. Perhaps that’s why PA is the leading state in Cub ownership.
