Is that province comprised entirely of my boss? I wish I could find it now, but a few years back a news article on some website accidentally got the top result for "facebook.com" on google, and their comments box was filled with hundreds upon hundreds of confused people trying to log into facebook. It's a bit hard to find on google now, ironically. for map content, I found this recently and thought it was interesting:

Lots of children, few old people, 85% aboriginal. The numbers are also skewed by Nunavut's high birth rate (highest in Canada) and the fact that a lot of adults leave for economic reasons.

MythLisp posted:Is Nunavut so young as it has a low population with the majority Canadian Aboriginal people with a lower life expectancy? A high birth rate is almost always a bigger contributor to a low median age than a low life expectancy. Guess which state in the US has the lowest median age? Hint: It's not Mississippi or West Virginia.

It looks like someone took my maps from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_evolution_of_Canada and modified them for this; the lines all seem to match up perfectly, if slightly rotated. I'm unsure how to feel about that.

I presume this is the percentage of people currently living in a given county who were born in the same state. I'd also be interested in the inverse map, the percentage of people born in a given county who still live in the same state. The differences between the two might be interesting.

It's interesting how most of the West in general (California and Utah excluded) have large proportions of their population come from different states, even the tiny rural populations. I'd expect some of it just due to the stereotype about Californians coming and ruining everything, but not in middle of nowhere Idaho.

I'd expect some of it just due to the stereotype about Californians coming and ruining everything, but not in middle of nowhere Idaho. Most of it makes sense. Even Vermont and New Hampshire (Bostonians and New Yorkers moving out; hell, Bernie Sanders helps contribute to Vermont's redness). The prominence of some state lines is curious even if it sorta makes sense (people shifting across state lines as they marry/age maybe) but I didn't expect it to be true to this degree. Also it's weird that some military installations stand out (Ft. Hood in Texas) while many others don't. I'm also somewhat surprised that only southern cities show up as destinations and not places like San Jose or San Francisco. (I mean, I get WHY they show up, just not why other cities with major work-related migration don't)

Moving one county over isn't too unusual, but sometimes the county is in another state if you live near the border. Perfectly natural for there to be more interstate migration in border counties. Where it's highlighted are probably areas where the nearest larger city with education or work opportunities is in a border county.

ComradeCosmobot posted:I'm also somewhat surprised that only southern cities show up as destinations and not places like San Jose or San Francisco. (I mean, I get WHY they show up, just not why other cities with major work-related migration don't) Part of that, I'm guessing, is county size. The four largest counties surrounding Atlanta average ~800,000 people, while Santa Clara County (San Jose) is 1.7 million, Alameda County (Oakland) is 1.5 million, and Los Angeles County is a cool 10 million. I can't really see but it *looks* like San Francisco County is a redder shade, which makes sense, both for what it is, and the fact that it's 'only' 850,000. So it takes a lot fewer people in a county to turn it red for Georgia than for California; remember that the lowest color on this is up to a full half of the population, whereas the other blocks are 5-10% each. I note Loving County appears to be at the 70%-75% range, meaning roughly... 23 people in the county weren't born in Texas. Who on earth is willingly moving to Loving County from out of state?

I'd bet the people living in those green counties of Michigan's thumb are all living in the counties they were born in. It's a bizarre, insular part of an already rather insular state.

Jerry Manderbilt posted:also can i say i'm surprised all the nevada counties are red on this map? even the ones aside from washoe and clark Most of the smaller counties in Nevada have doubled in population since just 1980, for whatever reason, be it people wanting to move to the big empty, or mining picking back up, or new tourist attractions needing labor. That can't all just be from in-staters and births. Hell, the larger ones too - Clark County is now *four* times larger than it was in 1980.

Albermarle County is the island of cherry-red in west-central Virginia, circling Charlottesville. It's also Virginia's wine and horse country, where an inordinate number of wineries (including Trump's) are located. I can believe it's only half natives. Also visible is the DC agglomeration, trailing down from Arlington toward Stafford. The dark red in the southeast is VA Beach, obviously, but I'm not sure about the one on the peninsula between Richmond and Norfolk. James City or York County, I think, so it's probably down to military bases. We've got a lot of them. I think the one down in the far southwest is just people straying across the border from Tennessee.

For some reason, white supremacists have a hard-on for the Holy Roman Empire and its various descendents and bastard children with Christian Scandinavia. I wonder why this could be. I mean, this map is literally just HRE.jpg plus the most Normanized bits of England and the populated parts of Scandinavia, leaving out the bits that stayed with ancestral belief practices longest.
