Really neat map - what color is your area?

I am happy to be in a kinda calico area!

Just posting to add, you can zoom in really close, it gets more interesting when you are closer in, areas that look all blue from a distance have other colors when you close in!

Mine looks purple with some blue and green.. a few dots of red, which surprised me because there are lots of Asians here. but then when I got real close in, I saw lots of red dots.

My little dot moved East!!!!!

Very interesting and kinda fun to look at.

I remember filling out my census book and feeling a little sad that the house 'population' had dwindled down to one person......


thanks for the link!

I was going to say use the zoom, then I saw you added that.

Where I live now is interesting, the neighborhood is mostly blue but then the strip at the end of my street, which is low income housing (several very large apartment complexes) are every other color!

And where I will be when I move appears blue until you zoom in. Then there is an almost equal amount of red with the blue.

Nice find Karen, thanks for sharing!

Vette - if you look on the left side, there's a button and you can turn on map labels - that helps a lot! And if I look at Spokane - lots of blue dots and some red - I didn't zoom in to a particular neighborhood or anything, but when you zoom in it even gets down to street labels!

Very green in the area I'm currently in...

[Lady's Human]

Very white...

as in damned few dots of any color. LOL

Very interesting!!

I live in Philadelphia, which is a very segregated city, and you can completely tell from this map. It is either completely blue or completely green in a certain neighborhood.

Hmmm - not too accurate IMO. DE shows mostly blue, so that is really skewed. Seems that there are as many Blacks (the map used this term, so I guess I can too), Hispanics, and those of Arabic culture.

You're moving? Is this something happening in the near future?
