Data Journalism using D3 visuals!!

Newsroom

Welcome to the newsroom! This project is to analyze the census data to find the current trends shaping people's lives, as well as creating charts, graphs, and interactive elements using D3.js to help readers understand the findings. We know how impactful visualization is to tell the underlying story; here we see how that is being done using a powerful tool like D3!

In this project, we sift through information from the U.S. Census Bureau and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and visualize the health risks facing particular demographics.

Dataset

The data set is based on 2014 ACS 1-year estimates: https://data.census.gov/cedsci/, The data set includes data on rates of income, obesity, poverty, etc. by state. MOE stands for "margin of error."


Javascript library d3 and SVG drawings are used extensively in this project.
