US Population Infographic

If you are curious about the demographics in the area in which you live, I recommend checking out this fascinating infographic from the NY Times. Using this interactive applet, you can explore population trends, population density, racial breakdown, and even data on vacant housing units broken down by each census tract.

I posted another infographic before from the NY Times, the CPI Interactive Chart. I find it impressive how enormous data sets can be presented in accessible formats. Feel free to share your favorite infographics and applets in the comments section.
