Moving out of New York (and into): The Visualization of Where

Found this  - a wonderful interactive visual display of New York migration patterns by zip code.  Really at its base, there are two key bits of information driving this map - where to & from by zip.


Taking a "dot cartogram" approach, I like to the "in-out" color thematics and inter route line connections to origin and destination zip codes.


This was part of 15 data "interpretations" featured on FlowingData and WNYC. Read/view more on the other submission below.

Full credits to Moritz Stefaner (moritz.stefaner.eu)  - great work! Also thanks to FlowingData Mapping the moves of New York residents for bringing this to my attention.
