Shows not just ethnic distribution but overall population density as well — cool!

Thanks. I hope FReepers will find this useful in their research particularly in helping them with specific elections.

Someone should send it to the Black Pampers, Obama and MeCHA the next time they start agitating for a race war.
And to the GOP for that matter. Perhaps them more than anyone.

The map, created by Dustin Cable at University of Virginias Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service, is stunningly comprehensive. Drawing on data from the 2010 U.S. Census, it shows one dot per person, color-coded by race. Thats 308,745,538 dots in allaround 7 GB of visual data. It isnt the first map to show the countrys ethnic distribution, nor is it the first to show every single citizen, but it is the first to do both, making it the most comprehensive map of race in America ever created.

Fascinating - absolutely fascinating! I’m going to send a drilled-down screen capture of my area to blackpeoplemeet.com and ask them to take me off their mailing list because there AREN’T any black people around here!

It might help some plot a new home site too I used a similar map to find my home. Oddly enough, crime in my area is very low.

I see that I tend to vacation in areas with concentrations of Smurfs. But I guess when go fly-fishing on vacation that is to be expected.

Well, you know, some entrepreneur might see the merit of making an app out of the demographic information present in the map and perhaps utilize it as a safety device regarding areas to avoid. Although most of the liberal constituency would find themselves saying, that's racist.

Thanks for posting. I love maps and this is a good one.
Even without the demographics I am struck by population density.
No wonder the Eastern seaboard is so liberal and messed up.
