Ping Ed: Inneresting demographics/map tool

I get 18,500,000 -- which includes most of your assholes.

That's very interesting. It breaks NJ townships up into pieces, maybe as it sweeps around in a circle, because I'm in a borough that's in the middle of a township (Edison).

Anyway, thanks for the link. I'm going to play with it a bit.

a 100 mi radius

That one I know. The government has really upped it game on the web.

In a 25 mile radius of my "new" zip , we have just under 38K souls and

Where you at?

I get 2.6 million in 25 miles!

Total number of businesses in radius = 124,068

That's WAY too many people. And no where near enough businesses.

zip 93268

Total population in radius = 131,841 Total number of businesses in radius = 2,183

And I do live in the sticks

If you lived any further out, you'd have to have acreage. (taint there a rule about owning more property being a requirement to not living in town?)

Stone County in north central Arkansas . A hotbed of Hillbilly Blacksmithing and a host of light industries . Stone County Ironworks , got an aluminum boat factory , wood pellet plant , and a bunch of tourist stuff - it's a "destination" .

Heh , to get to our place ya gotta turn off the paved road onto the Big Dirt Road , then onto the Little Dirt Road ... Our place is 12 wooded acres , year-round creek , and down in The Holler . Neighbors are pretty much all redneck hillbillies . We're so far out in the weeds we had to get a landline because there's no cell coverage at our place .

First of all, Landview 6, the new one, is for sale only, and you have to order a DVD. Secondly, it will only run on 32-bit computers.

I saw Landview 5 some years ago, and it was fun and interesting. It's no longer available. d8-(

However, there are lots of other toys to play with, including interactive maps, on the Census Bureau website:

How many chickens?

I do, too. I've lived in the sticks, and in dense metro areas, and I like both, for different reasons, of course.

'Sounds like you have what you need -- and plenty of open space.

Snerk. Friend of mine live near Scott's Valley. Directions were "take the driveway to the right, and the first turnoff, which is a dirt road." Down and around, and there was the travel trailer they rented. In the trees. With regular reports of deer & 'coons and the occasional mountain lion. Rednecks, if there is a patch of "middle of nowhere" nearby, they'll find it. High Tech Rednecks especially.

HighTech Rednecks are dangerous.... sorta like a SimpletonPlimpleton, with

Actually High Tech Rednecks are very smart people. And have largely invented Americas technology. Who else would invent computers in a garage, or develop airplanes on cocktail napkins in a bar?

Think Henry Ford was stupid? Yet he developed the Model T..which lead to an incredible group of secondary industries...rum running, back seat population increases, etc etc And old Henry was indeed a Redneck

Examples of other genius

Think a redneck would stand there all day lifting a heavy weight and then dropping it down a hole..over and over again?

S*it who but a redneck could have invented this?

Sheetfire..."Roughneck" is simply a lable to show that its a redneck that got him a hardhat.

Read this guys bio...tell me he werent no redneck!

Taint hardly find no Far Leftwing Extremists in anyplace other than a soup line or a government orifice. Rednecks made America and rule it today. The guy you see in that $3000 suit would be just as happy to be wearing bib overalls and drinking shine from a mason jar.

Damn scary smart, some times.

Or, or or ... it was a sailor, not an officer, who came up with the idea - and parts - to drain the fueling lines on US aircraft carriers (during WW2) and fill them with carbon dioxide. Prevented a lot of fires from battle damage post Coral Sea.

In his back yard shop (they didn't have garages in them days.)

And my main grip is that what most people (baring Foxworthy) call "a redneck" is considered more of a "good ol' boy" back in the South. Back there, redneck taint a good thing. Better than some other classifications, but not a good thing. Good ol' boys - they're like rednecks, only they mean no harm. (Example of the difference, when a good ol' boy finishs his beer, he tosses it into the truck. The redneck tosses it out.) But when they're setting ont he porch sipping shine from mason jars, thems are Steuben cutglass "Mason Jars." B-)

They did, but they called them 'Carriage Houses'. :)

Yeah "Houses" B-)

I went and looked it up "garage" is from the French. Quell Weird.

That's why I call mine a 'Shop'. :)
