2000 vs. 2010 racial maps

[Sheliak5]

Here's another use for Dave's redistricting app, and a good way to show OFFICIAL, neighborhood by neighborhood changes over the past 10 years. I posted a before and after map of Chicago in the DRA thread, and it got some good responses so I'm starting a thread for it.

Here's Houston.



and the Chicago map from the other thread.

Those areas north of Cinco Ranch are interesting....

Did those areas develop mostly after 2000?

Mostly pre-2000, though some post-2000, as certain parts were rural (rather mixed actually).  Willing to bet that most of the post-2000 development is more white in nature and the older developments got taken over by Hispanics.

In general, those areas had much cheaper housing than the areas to the south or north.

Ooh, Atlanta's gonna be interesting, when GA data is up.

St. Louis. Southern areas stay mostly the same. A bit of hispanic growth  to the west of town and of course the continued pattern black migration from the inner city into the suburbs, this time to the north.



Denver. Aurora is pretty. Moderate hispanic growth in the suburbs.

DC Suburbs and Baltimore



Birmingham (just because)

[Sheliak5]

Jackson, MS. Some white flight.



Richmond, VA.



OKC.

[Sheliak5]

And finally, Austin TX.

That's all from me for today. I'll take requests, although this is very easy to do yourself. Just copy and paste both maps, even out the edges, and put 'em up.

Here's a map I made about a month or so ago. I kept hearing about how blacks were leaving LA, and wanted to see that mapped. This is using the 2000 census data, and the 2005 (I think) ACS data. Already fairly substantial changes here, so it'll be VERY interesting to see what 2010 data holds.



Now back to '00-'10 results.

Indianapolis.



Kansas City, MO.

Denver. Aurora is pretty. Moderate hispanic growth in the suburbs.

Interesting show of gentrification in Near West Side and North Denver plus new housing in LoDo.

The historical black area is in East Denver, northeast of downtown expanding to the east.  In the 1960s, supposed manipulation of school attendance zones around Colorado Blvd resulted in court-ordered integration of Denver Schools.  50 years later, the areas to the west of Colorado Blvd are slowly shifting to Hispanic and Anglo areas.  The big pink area is the the former airport (the notches on the north end are where runways were extended into the Rocky Mountain Arsenal).  The former airport site is being converted into a residential,  commercial, industrial area.  Because it is new construction, the housing is relative expensive but close to Downtown Denver.

The residential areas to the east of the old airport is Montbello which was annexed to Denver and developed in the 1960s and 1970s, which is fairly modest homes, and over time became at least plurality black, but now is becoming more Hispanic especially in the west.

The black population skipped over the airport and moved into Aurora where it has become more dispersed as it has become more middle class.

wonder if New Orleans would show much in regards to changes in 10 years

Not as much as you might think, surprisingly.

Maps will be darker from here on out.

North Jersey. Look at those huge Asian gains towards the bottom of the map... anyone know what all that's about?



Tulsa, OK.



Seattle. The Northern border is around Edmonds, the southern border around 288th street. I didn't go all the way to Tacoma because it would have made the map look horrible. Tacoma, and the suburbs immediately to its north, will be out later. The southern suburbs look like a stained glass window, lol.

The Asian areas in NJ are the Edison area, the coast of Jersey City (and around Journal Square near the center of the city) and the Palisades Park area (between Hudson County and the black area in Bergen County). All three saw massive increases in Asian population. Edison and Jersey City are heavily Indian; Palisades Park is heavily Korean.

Also significant Asian growth out in Parsippany, but I don't know that area so well.

The Seattle map is quite beautiful.

Thanks for the NJ info.

Yes, the Seattle map is amazing. Great city, if the weather weren't so dreary I'd move.

Dallas, Fort Worth, & San Antonio.

[Sam Spade]

That DFW map indicates to me that a majority-black CD there is probably impossible (not that one is necessarily required or could be done before) - the black population has spread out a lot from 2000.  EBJ's CD will be a polyglot mess, I suspect.

Eh, it's not that bad. In the Summer, the Puget Sound area is one of the most beautiful places in the world. You learn to appreciate it all the more after our perpetually overcast winters and spring.

Seems like a good idea to wait tell the 2010 data comes out for CA before doing those.

Hmm, I wonder how the shifts would be. My guess is SD became a lot more Hispanic.
