Where People Live

I am over-Trumped, over the Hill-ary and cannot read one more article on Theresa May, Angela Merkel, Vladimir Putin or Petro Poroshenko.  So here is a trivia blog of interesting stuff. In pictures.

50% of Americans live in the blue counties

50% of Canadians live in the red census districts. Montreal and Quebec city are hard to see

Most Canadians live South of 49; most Europeans North 
Half the world's population live in the yellow areas and dots

    2. We've had a comfortable amount of traffic, but no nibbles yet. We started on the high side of the price range, so we're doing a price reduction this week. Time will tell...

  4. A nice change from all the Trump and Clinton rhetoric. Why can't they just talk about how they are going to improve Amurrica instead of throwing nasty personal insults at each other. So stupid. If those two are the best that Amurrica has to offer, then Gawd help us all.
    Meanwhile, very interesting facts regarding poulation....
