Is Spain just that much less densely populated or do they just not care for tennis as much as the rest of western Europe? Both?
Spain is mostly very sparsely populated outside of big cities.
But of course this isn't a map of tennis courts, it's a map of tennis courts that are entered in OpenStreetMap.
That's a good point, OpenStreetMap coverage could simply be worse in more rural parts of Eastern Europe
In Spain, a lot of if tennis courts have been replaced with padel courts (more profitable and trendy).
Is that what they call pickleball there?
no, different sports.
It's a different sport that originated in Mexico but has been expanding fast throughout South America and Europe.
I think Pickleball is more of a US thing
I also started wondering if this was just another population density map
