Fascinating map from RVA News:
Dustin Cable, a researcher and statistician over at the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service at UVA, recently released a colorful map of the United States based on the 2010 census data.
But these are no arbitrarily chosen and positioned colors. In this case, the map contains 308,745,538 dots (purportedly; I didn’t count ‘em), each of which represents the ethnicity and relative location–accurate to roughly the size of a city block–of every single person in the country. Dang!

Funny how the recent incidents which has brought back the old battles of NOB and SOB – here the map shows racial demographic differences. White SOB, Black NOB and West of Chamberlayne. There is blending around perimeters but the map in a distance shows definite boundaries.
For those unfamiliar with the term SOB vs NOB = South of Broad Street vs. North of Broad Street, often referred to Sobs versus Nobs.
