A table of worldwide ages of consent, including US states

Did you know: The age of consent in Bulgaria is 14
OK, maybe that outweighs the train thing.

I was surprised to see that the age is 13 in Spain!

The following states of the USA use 14 in at least some circumstances: South Carolina, Missouri, Iowa. (Those usually include circumstances like marriage with parental consent.)

  1. 14 is also age of consent here in good ole Arkansas.
