Default #1 Realities of racial segregation in America - Whites move away from nonwhites

Turns out most Whites agree with us in their actions. Still self segregating away from savage nonwhites despite their claims about loving diversity.

The incredible interactive map that plots the racial profile of every individual living in America... and the remarkable divides it reveals

With 308,745,538 coloured dots, this is the incredible interactive map that plots the racial profile of every single person living in the United States of America.

The remarkable resource was created by University of Virginia professor Dustin Cable, using data collected from the 2010 Census.

Cable allocated colours for each race; blue for people who identify themselves as white, green for black people, red for Asian, orange for Hispanic and brown for those those who identify themselves as from another race, Native American, or multiracial.


Revealing: This overview of Los Angeles shows the significance of the Hispanic population to the city's racial profile


Close up: Zooming in on the racial profiling map gives a more detailed picture of how large city populations such as Los Angeles are divided


The Big Apple: New York has always had a reputation as one of the great cultural melting pots of the world, with different waves of immigrants arriving for centuries


Dividing lines: From this vantage point, the different racial profiles of areas such New York City and Brooklyn become much clearer

The result makes for fascinating viewing. For example, looking at an entire city, it may give the impression of being a cultural melting point. Red and blue dots mix to make purple, while green and blue make teal.

But zoom in further and the segregation between races becomes more apparent. White, black or Hispanic neighbourhoods are clearly visible.

Cable, a senior research associate at the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service, said the map gives users a level of engagement with Census data which simply isn't possible from scrolling through hundreds and hundreds of tables.

'I wanted to create a visual of 2010 census data at a level of granularity not typically seen in many data maps,' he told MailOnline. 'And I think it is that level of detail that makes the map, and the data behind it, more accessible for people because, after all, you are one of the 308 million dots on the map. You can look yourself up and place yourself in the context of your neighborhood, city, or region.'


Interactive: The map gives users the chance to see their city or neighbourhood in a different light
