These days it seems that the solely interactive maps coming out of the USA are related to mass-shootings, gun homicides together with other gun related maps. Here's only about other one.
The Oregonian's Gun Sellers inwards the United States map shows the number of licensed gun sellers per 100,000 people at county level. If you lot mouse-over a county on the map you lot tin thought the number of gun sellers inwards the county together with the full population.
One of the big questions hither must hold upward whether the number of licensed importers, pawnshops together with sellers of firearms inwards a county genuinely has whatever number on the number of gun crimes inwards the area. The Oregonian's own US Gun Deaths Map 2004-2010 provides a peachy comparison. This map shows the average number of gun deaths per 100,000 county residents. The map thence does supply a practiced overview of where the virtually gun deaths are occurring, inwards proportion to the population.
If you lot compare the 2 maps it seems that at that topographic point may hold upward only about correlation betwixt the number of gun sellers inwards only about counties together with the number of gun deaths - but non inwards many other areas. For example, inwards only about of the north-western states at that topographic point are a high number of gun sellers together with a high proportion of gun deaths. However, if you lot hold off at the gun homicides map on the Oregonian you lot volition encounter that those north-western states genuinely convey a lower than average number of gun homicides. The bulk of those gun deaths inwards the north-west come upward from people killing themselves amongst guns.
The southern states tend to convey the highest gun homicides per population. If you lot hold off at the choropleth map of gun sellers you lot tin encounter that the S inwards full general genuinely has a lower than average number of gun sellers per population. So the link betwixt the number of licensed gun sellers together with the number of gun homicides inwards a county appears to hold upward pretty weak.
