Problem: Summarize in 2 simple sentences and in first person narration: Hawaii has the largest proportion of military personnel compared to its total population among all U.S. states. Active military personnel and their dependents make up approximately 10% of the state's population, while more than 8% of the adult civilian population in Hawaii are considered veterans. Given that the military controls more than 20% of the land area of Oahu (the most populated island) the percentage is greatest on the island known as The Gathering Place. Why is this data relevant to the discussion about vulnerability to problem gambling and sports betting addiction in Hawaii? Numerous bodies of research confirm that the rate of problem gambling among the military is 3.5 times higher than among civilians. The state's active military and veteran population has enough to contend with when it comes to behavioral health, so notable investment in support must point towards this population segment too.
