3. Population Pyramid

*Green = male population
**Gray = female population


I constructed this pyramid myself using raw data taken from the U.S. Census Bureau. Not only is this graph classified as Geovisualization, but more specifically it is a population pyramid AND a multivariate map. This graph reflects a "young" population, high fertility, and fast population growth. Maps such as these are often used in demographic profiles.
