pretty cool idea.  Data is from 10 years ago.

pretty extensive city list too.  even relatively small ones were done.

Interesting but I call bullshit on the St. Louis one.  The colors are backwards.  White is NOT the majority in St. Louis. Miami however was on target.

That's impressive. I'd like to see an updated map to compare. Providence is pretty accurate with the blacks and Hispanics concentrated in the West and South ends, so I don't know how much it would have changed, considering the amount of gentrification that has taken place in the city within the last decade.

I am one of two white families in a 5 block radius, My children were 2 of 6 white kids in the whole fucking school.  All I was saying is it was wrong for St. Louis.   I know that for a fact.  With that knowledge, we can deduce that the other cities (not all) are off as well.

It is from 2000, so it's 10 yrs behind.
Also, the spanish population has grown quite a bit in orlando since then.

since it's census data, it does depend on just how many people actually turned in the forms.

I'm not going to get into a pissing match with you over it because it's not that important.

I just thought it was a cool concept.

maybe you just live in a mostly black neighbourhood/ school district

or maybe they are SPAGS. also if the data is 10 years old, maybe theres been a big decrease in white people since then

It definitely will not be relevant in my city.  We are a major resettlement site for Somali refugees and that population has increased quite dramatically since 2000.  As you might expect, it's causing quite a bit of angst among segments of the old French white population.
