The farther north you get in the US, the more likely it is that someone will use winter tires.
However, remember that the US tends to be farther south than Europe. For example, Rome, which is in Southern Europe, is about the same longitude as Chicago, which is north/central US. (See http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001769.html http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001769.html and http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001796.html http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001796.html .)
Yes, I know that winter temperatures and snowfall are more relevant but I don't have those.
