And if you shrink the size of the census block even further you'll find that an amazing 90+% of land isn't actually being occupied!

- Yardlink 12y agoIf you shrink it even further still you'll find 100% isn't being occupied! That's assuming each person occupies only a point, or pretty close to. That's why this map is so misleading even if it is fascinating. The size of the blocks has a huge effect on the result.
- aw3c2 12y agoBut isn't the resulting image kind of inversely misleading? Ie showing less unoccupied space than existing? Most of the occupied blocks are only occupied in fractions, as you both say.
