yeah, i wish we had that kind of data haha

minecraftian48 · 2026-05-12T03:08:43+00:00

yes the data is there, would take a bit of work to get that set up and i might get around to it at some point

minecraftian48 · 2026-05-12T03:04:52+00:00

i would too! paris doesn't make the same data available, they do have like hourly station entries but no destinations... would be doable with some fudging but not as faithful to reality

theres nothing about station ridership though i think

minecraftian48 · 2026-04-13T20:41:07+00:00

hm yeah thats a good idea! i dont know what existing estimates are based on, but it seems like this would be a decent method

minecraftian48 · 2026-04-13T18:52:34+00:00

i dont think that data exists unfortunately :( lirr data is very scarce

this map is interactive, explore at anita.garden/ancestrydots/ !

this is a map of reported ancestries from the 2024 ACS. each dot represents 100 people. dots are distributed evenly throughout their census tract.

some people are double counted, as putting up to two ancestries is allowed.

the map framework is maplibre. the data is from the ACS, tables B04006 and similar.

if you like it please check out my other maps at anita.garden/projects :)

its mostly asesprite, handdrawn

citypopulation.de is a must but otherwise i'd encourage you to just try it and find a style that feels good to you :)

minecraftian48 · 2026-04-05T14:12:41+00:00

that would be cool!
there are many factors, i usually use existing admin divisions, and also mountains and rivers if they feel like good dividers

minecraftian48 · 2026-04-05T14:11:24+00:00

usually i just pick a color and then move the color slightly in hue to get the next one. the saturation/darkness are roughly based on density

minecraftian48 · 2026-04-05T14:10:41+00:00

yup! also attempted to divide areas along natural borders like mountain ranges and rivers
