NY Times Map Shows Racial Makeup of Every Block in CV, SLZ

The New York Times put together an interactive map that shows the distribution of racial and ethnic groups on every block in the United States.

The maps indicate that the most popular racial and ethnic groups throughout Castro Valley and San Lorenzo are whites, Hispanics and Asians.

In Ashland, the most popular racial and ethnic groups are whites, blacks and Hispanics. While in Cherryland, around half the population is Hispanics.

See our slideshow to the right to see the racial makeup of the four areas.

You can also tinker with the map yourself on the New York Times. It was built using 2005-2009 census data. You can see the census tract by holding your mouse over the different areas on the map.

Scan the map and let us know what trends and patterns jump out at you.
