Most places I've lived, you have your standard Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa Murphy's, etc., and then you have maybe one or two places that actually do pizza well. Honestly, I'd assume fast food is the highest everywhere. The states that show up in blue above, however, I'm not surprised about. I'm mildly surprised Arkansas is Mexican and not fast food.

There are a whole bunch of non-chain pizza restaurants, mostly takeout/delivery, in this area.

Same here, along with many regional chains. The demand for pizza from somewhere other than a nationwide chain is seemingly much greater in the Northeast/Great Lakes than elsewhere in the country. This has been discussed in a few other threads here, can't remember which at the moment.

Taco Bell is fast food, but does it count as Mexican too? :sombrero:
Arkansas has had a long tradition of successful Mexican restaurants going back to Mexico Chiquito founded in the 1930s. The state now has its share of immigrants to expand the genre.

That's like asking if Panda Express counts as Chinese or if Pizza Hut counts as Italian.

Still gotta ask. The question remains.
