Diog...I would argue that flag flying being a rarity is not a universal accross the nation. It does appear to me to be more of a Rural phenomenon, in the cities I rarely see a flag. It may not be popular with younger generations there are still many hundreds of thousands of US flags being purchased and people do use them.
