Some really great statistical studies along those lines

1. Correlation between density of population in Detroit and percentage of Roman Catholics in the population.
2. Inverse correlation between crime rate in Detroit and percentage of Lutherans in the population.
3. Inverse correlation between percentage of insured cars on the road and the density of population in Detroit.

Have fun with mathematics.
