      Funny how jobs is a draw – and that is a cool map concept – California & Texas interesting

      Imagine how much cleaner the people live in cities map would be if urban borders were used instead of county lines.

      New Hampshire dosn’t look right – no way there’s 1/2 the state in that small area, which doesn’t have the biggest city or third-biggest city and maybe (hard to tell) the second-biggest

      Crazy that Maryland’s dense half doesn’t even include the city of Baltimore

      My dumbass was about to say “hey, this map doesn’t say which color is which” and then I realized I am dumb

      Its crazy how Charleston and Colombia are not the densest half of SC.

      I wouldn’t have Virginia going all the way down to Emporia like that, Petersburg would make more sense. The drive between those is pretty rural, even moreso than the Fredericksburg to Richmond section.

      Oh hey you can see the Miami metropolitan area. & The Orlando metropolitan area.

      It’s interesting that California includes the Central Coast (not very populous), but not the Central Valley (which has a lot more people). It really just includes the Central Coast to bridge LA and the Bay Area, though.

      Florida is sort of interesting. The upper part crossing the state is roughly where explorers listed as solid land in the 1500s. It’s likely a dividing line for home ownrrs insurance rates as well.

      Every place ive ever lived, in four states, is the purple section.

      Any time you break it into „densest & least dense“ half, you’re defining it as bunching up, if you don’t allow „islands“. There are empty rural areas in almost every one of those yellow spots

      It would greatly amuse me if Staten Island were not colored yellow on this map.

      Not sure I get what this is supposed to show? Some of these don’t make sense if the goal is for one half to be much denser. Take Ohio, I would bet a narrow band starting in the northeast around Youngstown going southwest through Cleveland, maybe including Akron Ann Canton, then through Columbus, and Dayton, finally terminating in Cincinnati would include well over 50% of the states population and a lot less rural areas. Ohio is this blob that almost half the state, but Missouri is a narrow band, basically I70.

      I think well more than half of Ohio’s population could easily be grouped together into about a 20-mile-wide swath down 71, 70, and 75 from Cleveland to Cincinnati.

      Fascinating how few folk in NY per the map .
      No Albany , Syracuse , Buffalo etc showing up

    27. Lieutenant_Joe on

      90% certain NH is inaccurate. I think it’s excluding Manchester and concord from the yellow, which is *the* major population center.

    28. okGoogull on

      I was about to say „jeez, Alaska“ but then I looked at New York State.

      Cool map. Density is heavily dependent on geography. When society was more agrarian, people settled in places with good farmland or near waterways. It slowly built from there. Now people congregate near these centers because that’s where the jobs are at.
