Interesting Visualization Of ACS Migration Data

Cliff Cook over 11 years ago

While not GIS, I found this chart to be a very interesting visualization of migration data from the 2012 ACS and did not know where else to post the link:

vizynary.com/.../

If you mouse over the name of a state the graphic changes to display just flows in and out of that state. Only flows over 10,000 people are shown.

There is a short article in The Atlantic about this effort:

Perhaps this group could cover not just GIS but any visualization of ACS data.

I was at the ESRI UC and saw a presentation where the Census showed their Census Flows Mapper: flowsmapper.geo.census.gov

This allows you to graphically look at migration patterns at the county level. I remember them talking about creating some API's and allowing developers to more easily use the data.

In any case, the state to state visualization is very nice.
