There’s a reason “mid coast” is another name for the Mississippi watershed.

Trade off the teal in Florida for more of the upper section of green, just so we aren’t splitting peninsulas arbitrarily, and this is great. Every decistate has access to an ocean port and the full range of climate. As a Purplestater, I approve.

I’ve only lived in three, but have been to nine. I’d tell you the color of the one I haven’t been to, but I can’t describe it other than puke green. Beautiful map.

Trying to wrap my head around how a region anchored on Boise, Salt Lake, Phoenix, (EDIT: Las Vegas), San Bernardino, Orange County, and San Diego has as many people as one anchored on Anchorage, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, LA, and Honolulu.

Buffalo and Rochester shouldn’t be split up like that

Wake up babe, new time zones dropped

Genuinely curious whether this is accurate. I would expect that it would be more weighted toward the east, but I do see that several of the divisions run directly through major metropolitan areas (NYC, Chicago, DFW/OKC) so like… maybe?

I will name these zones.
From west to east, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, Houston, Chicago, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Charlotte, Philadelphia, New York.
Aont no way red an purple have the same population, right??? Id guess that red would have 5× the population with the entirety of the west coast

This doesn’t seem very correct

There’s no way the lighter shade of purple and dark green are the same.

Purple can’t possibly be equal with red. Los Angeles alone has more people than most of the states in the purple area. Phoenix and San Diego can’t possibly be big enough to compensate.

Ohio and florida being in the same region, I’d avoid that part all together lol.

It looks they got this from this website:
https://engaging-data.com/splitting-us-by-population/
It uses 2018 census data
