Kind of interesting that so many people live in the parking lot of BSFS.

The locations of the dots do not represent actual addresses. The most detailed geographic identifier in Census Bureau data is the census block. Individual dots are randomly located within a particular census block to match aggregate population totals for that block. As a result, dots in some census blocks may be located in the middle of parks, cemeteries, lakes, or other clearly non-residential areas within that census block. No greater geographic resolution for the 2010 Census data is publicly available (and for good reason).

I've been thinking that it's pretty racist how many different races we lump into the "Asian" race.

If you zoom in on KC the east and west sides of Troost is pretty incredible.

just about every city has a line like that, and it is pretty incredible.

I was browsing around and saw a concentrated little green square in a very lightly populated area. Of course, it turned out to be a prison.  :sdeek:

I kinda get offended when, in a survey or whatever, I'm asked to select a race for myself.  I admit I'm weird about that stuff, though.

I don't know which is worse:

The fact that they derped their geography class, or the fact that Nebraska's favorite food is Hot Pockets.

it's also a weird/incorrect version. Those bare rectangles in Kansas don't really exist.

Kansas State is another one of those unlucky teams without a major Facebook presence and thus that can't even claim its home ZIP code.

Yeah, Katz not even being even being top 3 in Johnson County made me LOL. Apparently Mizzou and Nebraska have more fans in JOCO than the Katz.
