Public Policy Institute of California: Map Room
http://www.ppic.org/main/mapindex.asp
The Public Policy Institute of California provides timely research
papers and policy briefs on various issues affecting the Golden State,
including those related to public education financing, economic
development, immigration, and transportation. As of late, they have
also been beefing up their online map room area, which is a great
resource for those with an interest in policy matters, geography, and
urban studies. The interactive maps here are divided into four
categories, including housing, population, water, and environment.
With each map, visitors can click through to learn about different
details and features, and many of the maps have additional layers of
data as well. Perhaps the most interesting maps here include "Inland
Empire Demographics: 2005 and 2015" and "Home Affordability in
California's Counties". [KMG]
