Data is Beautiful

Given how gerrymandering works its not adequate. Notice how there's no red in California on this map?

It really depends. Some of these areas that aren't literally out in the sticks or old sundown towns, they're just ignorant morons and not dangerous face to face.

Source: I've lived in several of these places for far more years than I'll ever care to contemplate and boy do I understand the social isolation trans people have to live with... These ignorant hicks are harmless in the literal sense, but they'll still give weird looks and cold shoulders to anything their tiny shriveled brains fail to understand. Which is a lot.

red usually means danger zone. and its right to assume that.

Now that's a fault line!

Decade that a county peaked in population:

So thats a pretty good correllation, eyeballing it, its basically the areas that haven't had any real economic growth in decades, and are overwhelming populated by old people, and of course generally de facto have low populations.

If a population peaked in decade x, well, its been shrinking since then.

They are the past, lashing out violently as the light dims... they were never able to figure out why everything sucks for them now.

I'd bet you could make this a better corellation if you did 'decade that white population peaked'.

And then even better if you also did 'decade that white, non college educated population peaked.'

Dumb, dying, racist failures.

Actually though, great map of places to avoid forever

Title should read: Land that gets voting rights in the US.

You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know; morons.

(lol voted down already when it's a famous Blazing Saddles quote... I say again: morons)

The crease of the map.

Probably only 79%

If all that empty land didn't have a disproportionate representation in government we might not be living in this cesspool.
