I was astounded by Bill Rankin's map of Chicago's racial and ethnic divides and wanted to see what other cities looked like mapped the same way. To match his map, Red is White, Blue is Black, Green is Asian, Orange is Hispanic, Gray is Other, and each dot is 25 people. Data from Census 2000.

Poorly done. The gray is very hard to see.

Almost as if he meant to hide it, or what it implies.

So does this mean we should avoid the “blue” areas? Especially at midnight? (cough)

Great link. Thanks. I am a white guy in So Cal and it’s surprising to see there are more white people here than it seems.

On the Tucson map there’s 50 people claiming home in an active cement quarry.

I was looking at these racial demographic maps several weeks ago. The most interesting aspect was where racial neighborhoods abut.

Generalizing, caucasian and hispanic areas blur together. Black and white areas too though to a lesser degree. But note how sharp and distinct the boundary lines tend to be between black and hispanic zones.

Thanks for the link.

It appears people like to have neighbors who look like them and share the same values.
