Lab 2: Map Projections: Dot Density
Dot Density maps show how much and where at. They show how much of something is in a particular area and where the most are clustered at. This map is a good example of that, as it shows the number of older, pre-WWII homes still stand in West Virginia. What good is this data? It might show where old money is from or where historical preservation is taking place. Also, it's pretty cool, but not as much as the cows. Sorry, by Maryland cows wins this one.
