How to Make a Census Map

WNYC 2010 Census Map

In my extensive round-up of 2010 census maps yesterday I missed one very good map. WNYC has used Google Fusion Tables to create a great Google Map of the census data for the city of New York.

The map allows you to view heat maps of demographic changes in New York over the last ten years. The map allows you to view population change and changes in race / ethnicity in each of New York's census tracts.

If you are interested in how the map was put together John Keefe has written a great post on Making the WNYC Census Map.
