Kentucky Population Density

Full Screen

Created via the U.S. Atlas project as make topo/ky-counties.json, after modifying the Makefile to include population and area statistics. These per-county values are then used to compute the population density of each county.

    --id-property=FIPS,STATE_FIPS \
    -p name=COUNTY,name=STATE,+population,area=+SQUARE_MIL \
    -e KY-counties-pop.csv \
