I read an article about this earlier. Massachusetts has the highest percentage of college grads and the oldest housing stock of any state.

Map is very cool. This will devour my time.

Yep, very detailled !

Jersey City is ridiculously integrated.
I'm surprised how many Asians have congregated around the downtown/waterfront area.

Newark is very segregated, I knew that. My neighborhood is 73% Hispanic... Interesting.
It's also interesting how much Hispanics dominated the NJ side of the Hudson River across from midtown Manhattan.

Thanks for posting.

Good mapping tool. I would say it would probably have a BIT more use when the actual US census results come out, because estimates are just that; estimates, especially when it's calculated on a block by block basis. People move out/move in all the time.

Thank you, RenaudFR!

VERY COOL!

I realize this isn't the official 2010 data and I'm hoping things are a little different when the official census is revealed. I scanned over a lot of the areas I know in my city and the Midwest in general and, for the most part, things look pretty accurate, but I notice some areas that I feel may not be updated and I'm wondering if that's because this isn't the official census or because I'm wrong...
