Graphing the changing power of city centers

As you can see, this blog is largely dormant for me now as I do work for the Weldon Cooper Center's Demographics Research Group and write for its StatChat blog.

One major project I've been working on over the last few months is the Changing Shape of American Cities report. For this report, I aggregated and graphed data from census block groups based on distance to a defined city center. This gives the reader a picture of the gravitation of different groups towards and away from the city center.

Read the report here and see the graphs here.
