If you’d ever been to West Virginia, you’d understand why it has basically no pedestrians. Rural, mountainous, no public transit, not much of anywhere worth walking to, etc.
I get that much, but break-downs are also more common on such roads, along with the low income for that state meaning most of the cars are junk to start-with. Pedestrian deaths may be low for the reasons you’ve listed, but close to Plains-state Nebraska low? With all of those switch-backs and mountain roads?
I think you overestimate how populous this state is and how many people walk around. Most of the state’s population find it easier to roll around then walk and I don’t mean roll around in a car either lol. Biggest city in the state has like 50k people as a high count
Do people not walk in the alcoholism capital(Wisconsin)? … and West Virginia? Them’s some weird outliers.

The map is based on per-capita statistics. The total population wouldn’t affect that per se.
