Peter Walker 🇺🇲🇺🇦🇫🇮🌎🕊️☑️@conradhackett This map shows that Oregon is the least crowded lower-48 coastal state. But please do NOT move to Oregon. It rains 11.9 months of the year. We have venomous snakes and rabid dogs everywhere. Nothing to do--boredom is a leading cause of death. Really, DON'T move to Oregon!
Swader@conradhackett @peterwalker As a native Oregonian I agree.
Paul Briley 🇪🇺@peterwalker @conradhackett
Great place for outdoorsy folks. If park has autos in parking lot just go to next one that's empty.
Everywhere in USA has venomous snakes etc. You're just trying to keep the place to yourself. Admirable. 😉
@paul_briley @conradhackett no, no-- I mean venomous snakes are *everywhere* in Oregon. They've adapted to plumbing and can emerge from the kitchen sink, the bathtub drain, the toilet. Highly aggressive. Really, Oregon is AWFUL. Horrible.
@peterwalker @conradhackett
You can get non-return valves that stop such occurrences. Common in other places across planet where snakes can be an issue.

Michelle Bowen@conradhackett for us in the US it is so powerful to see visualizations like this and then overlay over congressional and senatorial districts.

great source, also for other very interesting maps. many thanks for sharing 😀

JohnMashey@conradhackett When I was at Bell Labs in 1970s, the Bell System had 3 types of economic/engineering planning areas:
1: rural
2: suburban/urban
3: New York City
Your visualization illustrates why...

Wren Birdie@conradhackett This is absolutely fascinating. Love your posts Conrad.
CarlLewistoo@conradhackett astonishing and illuminating
Emeritus Prof Christopher May@conradhackett really great data visualisation - makes something about the USA clear (its uneven distribution of population) that the raw data doesn't quiet convey - thanks for sharing!
stoicmike@conradhackett if you fly from San Francisco east, in a few minutes the land below is basically uninhabited for a thousand miles
Sue Stone@conradhackett People who haven't been in the intermountain west have no idea of how empty it is!
It's Just Jenn 🏳️⚧️@conradhackett
Oh hey I was able to find where I live! See that little cluster halfway between St. Louis and Kansas City? That's Columbia.

Mark Abraham@conradhackett Neat. An interactive 3D version of this could be useful, so that you could view it from different angles and zoom levels.
Greg Ridge@conradhackett ..what a cool looking map

Lilly Evans@conradhackett I am fascinated by incredible population density of Java and Philippines. Any reason these islands are so much more populated than any of V the neighbouring ones?
drakbailey@conradhackett Your periodic reminder that land doesn't vote...
James CummingsWhy do visualisations always cut off the countries to which the USA is attached? (Never mind the non-continental bits of the states, and even then they usually only show Alaska and Hawaii, not the other Territories.) It contributes to geographic illiteracy, IMHO.
Kenneth@conradhackett I can see my house!
