Does anyone have any good resources on creating a county by county map like that?

I've tried to find a good one to use, hopefully to output some data I've played with in python, but I can't seem to find any good resources.

Note to HN: There is so much information out there now. Lets see more people playing with it ;)


Many, if not most, of these factors are strongly correlated with wide income disparity and particularly greater poverty levels. Greed, obviously, but also those pertaining to crime rates (envy, wrath), arguably lust, and potentially gluttony.

It would be interesting to see these charts adjusted for wealth levels in some manner.


I find it pretty amusing that the Bible Belt states tend to be pretty "sinful".


This is a much better link if you ask me from the original:
