Another of the more fun maps to make. It was enlightening to see that I could take raw data from a source (the Yearbook) and mold that data into a workable map that makes since. The legend is my least favorite. I attempted to make the triangular legend but I couldn't make it look right, so I kept this one. I tried to acknowledge that there was an amount of "unknown" immigration. I hope that listing the data as not being there is truthful to the source and not misleading. In the same manner, I opted to remove Antarctica as there isn't a native human population of the continent (and therefore no immigration). I hope it's acceptable that I did both those things, I felt that while it may have been limiting in information to the end user, it was information that didn't benefit the purpose of the map.
