Are there any parts of the US where single pane windows are common instead of double pane?

Single pane are pretty outdated. I would guess they are not necessarily common in any one area, but common in poorer areas with older buildings, mobile homes, etc.

Or any areas where the houses are older and don't get updated a lot, which is going to include a lot of lower middle class areas.

I'm in the southeast US and only have single-pane windows on my house. Of course, my house was built in 1990, so it's probably more about the house's age.

1990 isn't exactly old for building standards.

1990 is like practically new. Do you mean 1890?

I’ve only seen double pane at new build garden homes.
