What are Demographic Maps?

Demographic maps display various types of census data on a map. They allow you to visualize what the demographics are in a given area. Some of the information that might be displayed on a demographic map includes:

• Population density
• Age
• Gender
• Race
• Eduction
• Transportation
• Labour
• Income
• Unemployment
• Housing

By plotting this information on a map you gain a better understanding of the people that live there. You can see where the majority of people reside, what the average age is in a given area if there are patterns in regards to income and other important insights.
