Population Maps

Project Introduction

Unrelated to my research activities are these Python maps of population data from the 2010 census. The code that generated these maps is modified from this online tutorial on how to make a map of unemployment data.

Scripts

These are the links to my scripts that generated these maps and the legends. Feel free to use or modify these scripts for your own personal use. Comments and acknowledgements are provided at the top of each script. These files are already in the .py format (can be opened in any plain-text editor). Note: I am a beginner at Python, so I'm not sure if me making these in a Windows 7 environment will impact how they are viewed on other systems.
