These maps capture the population density and changing racial divides in Miami from 2000 to 2010. The data is pulled from United States Census; thus, races are self-identified. Key: Red—White; Blue/Teal—Black; Orange—Hispanic; Green—Asian; Gray—Other. The maps visually illustrate the concentration of Black Miami in just a few neighborhoods. Maps created by Eric Fischer.
