Maryland precinct map: How did your neighborhood vote for president? State officials say they don’t have a statewide map of Maryland precincts. The Banner compiled as many maps from counties as we could and approximated the others.

The most detailed look yet at election results in Maryland is live on @thebaltimorebanner.com

How did your neighborhood vote?

Great team effort from @ryanlittle.bsky.social, Katrina Ventura and I.

A hex map of the United States shows the percent change in individuals who would have health insurance if enhanced PTCs are allowed to expire at the end of 2025 by state.

📊 A new data tool from @urbaninstitute.bsky.social shows that millions of Americans would lose their health insurance if the enhanced premium tax credits are allowed to expire at the end of 2025. Explore the tool to see who would be most impacted: www.urban.org/data-tools/h...

🧵Okay let's do some BTS for Axios' elections #dataviz.

1/5: We used <canvas> for our big maps, which means we had to do some tricks with color hashes to get interactivity.

What the reader sees vs. what the computer sees.

A map titled "The new continent of Arctica". It shows the world viewed from the North Pole extending about as far south as 55 degrees latitude. Sea is shown in pale green-blue, county outlines in brown. Canada is on the left of the map, Russia to the right and Northern Europe at the bottom. Overlaid in semi-transparent white is a mirror reflection of the Antarctic continental outline. It largely fits within the area of the Arctic Ocean overlapping northern hemisphere continents only in northern Canada and small parts of Alaska.

A bit short of time today, so had to rush this one, but quite pleased with an unexpected coincidence.

What would the continent of Arctica look like. How well could it fit in the Arctic Ocean?

Is the Love Song Dying? We categorized songs in the Billboard Top 10 to see if love songs are on the decline.

New project! Is love dead in pop music? 💕📉 We checked all 5,141 Top 10 hits since 1958 to see how much has *actually* changed. (Spoiler: it's not what most people think)

Debt in America: An Interactive Map This map shows the geography of debt in America at the national, state, and county levels. How does your community compare?

I brought this Debt in America tool data up to 2023. Check out credit card debt, medical debt, student debt, auto debt, and more, even subsetting by young adults 👀 apps.urban.org/features/deb...

How School Officials and Housing Developers Can Partner to Desegregate Communities Deeply entrenched neighborhood segregation has foiled many school integration efforts, with school officials and housing stakeholders often working in silos instead of in partnership.

Here's a deep dive into how schools in Charlotte are still suffering from neighborhood segregation, according to school and census data (Svelte, Mapbox, pubbed in April) housingmatters.urban.org/feature/scho...

The Changing Medical Debt Landscape in the United States Medical debt is the most common form of debt in collections in the United States, but recent changes from the major credit bureaus have reduced the share of Americans with medical debt in collections ...

Here's a Medical Debt svelte and layercake app for Urban Institute that pubbed in July! lots of line charts 📈 apps.urban.org/features/med...

I have a few more projects in my pipeline that are fairly D3 heavy, so watch out for those! my team is working on a good handful of innovative tools, charts, and explorers to take us through the end of the year, and we're so excited to show you soon.

This project is primarily built with Svelte and D3 and had a few more moving parts. if you want the full low-down, check out my git repo! https://github.com/UrbanInstitute/does-snap-cover-cost-meal-your-county-2022

Does SNAP Cover the Cost of a Meal in Your County? Amid inflation, SNAP benefits did not cover the cost of a meal in 99 percent of counties in 2022. Adjustments to SNAP narrowed—but didn’t close—that gap.

Last week, Urban Institute published another map tool I made showing how during 2022's high inflation, SNAP benefits did not cover the cost of a meal in 99% of counties in the US. SNAP was adjusted in Oct, only helping some. https://www.urban.org/data-tools/does-snap-cover-cost-meal-your-county-2022

this project was an awesome learning experience and I had a lot of support from our designer, Brittney Spinner, and my teammates, @aleszu.bsky.social, @mitchthorson.bsky.social, and @benkates.bsky.social. you'd better keep an eye out for this awesome crew, because big things are coming!!
