DotMap

Census based dotmap showing a dot for each human (in USA), per Census data. It looks a lot like a negative image of the USA lit up an night.

Thanks! There's so much you can "see" in that map. The contour of the Appalachians, the precipitation gradient as you head West from the Mississippi, and -- as you zoom in -- the county roads. It took me a moment to realize what the the giant white areas were in the middle of my city. The bigger ones are the industrial areas, the smaller ones are parks!
