Week Three Deliverable - Escambia Census Exercise

This map is a compilation of four different methods of analizing the stastical data from the 2000 U.S. Census Bureau. The challenge I faced was with the the Standard Deviation method. I attempted to create five classification to no avail.



The method I chose as to display my analysis of the data was the Equal Interval method. I feel that this method most clearly demonstrates the ratio of African American residents across Escambia county. Several of the other methods, I felt presented a skew of the data by either indicating a wider or narrower distribution of the residents.

  1. You did not need to create a 5th class for standard deviation. Logic behind the method was the key here.
