Mapping US population densities, median ages, by county
When it rains, it pours. Juice Analytics publishes a glorious example of the kind of stuff spatial analysis does best — overlays for Google Earth with colors denoting population densities or median ages, county-by-county. Here is NY population densities (I love this):

Collect all 50 states.

Where can I find a hight distrubution of the male population in the USA? Like how tall is a male at the 98 percentile in the US? Thank you to any help. I have made no progress on my own. Harald Duell

Thanks for sharing this. I agree - the Juice Analytics stuff really got me thinking. I am experimenting with Ruby scripts to parse Census data files and generate KMLs to display Census data. I think height is an interesting dimension - and combined with the many different geographic-levels available, there is quite a bit of power in these tools. You can see my progress here.
