Las Vegas is highest on the current map, at 22.0 mapped gyms per million residents (51 gyms). Each bar is the number of gyms with a published weekly timetable, divided by the metro’s population. Counts also reflect how completely each metro is mapped so far, so they rise as more gyms are added.

How we count
Every figure comes from the 1,364 US Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gyms on OpenMapp with a published weekly timetable and a saved location. Class times come from each gym’s own schedule. Visitor policies and drop-in prices count only where the gym states them; anything unstated stays out of the totals rather than being guessed. Per-capita figures divide by the population of the whole metropolitan area, not the city limits.
