US Milk Consumption per Person vs US Rural Population
US Milk Consumption per Person and US Rural Population correlate at r = +0.42 over 63 years (1961–2023), p = 5.8e-4. With the time trend removed, r = -0.27. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 5.8e-4) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = -0.27). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
