The New York Times has extracted data from the Census Bureau's 2005-2009 American Community Survey in order to compose a
map displaying the racial, socioeconomic, and educational composition of the U.S. In terms of income distribution, there is a high density of Americans earning over $200,000 in the Northeast. For instance, more than 15% of the population in Hunterdon, New Jersey, Fairfield, Connecticut, and Westchester, New York earn over $200,000. Another map illustrating the percentage of foreign born residents shows a high concentration throughout much of California, southern Arizona, south and southwest Texas, and southern Florida. Additionally, New York City and the region surrounding it possesses a high percentage of foreign born residents.
