In my Line Graph, I show the population of people in Albany for the entire census. I used race as a filter but excluded Native Americans. I was surprised to find how there was little increase in the population of Black and Japanese and Chinses people, even in the later periods displayed on the chart.

For my Bar Chart, I looked at the Occupations of the Albany census. I filtered the chart with the grouped birthplace. This chart can show the ethnic groups of different occupations during the time of the census. I expected to find groups like Italian and Irish workers to have high Labour intense jobs, as the chart shows.

For my Pie Chart, I did a simple comparison of gender in the Albany Census. I was surprised to find a larger male population. I expected it to be a little more even as Albany was a pretty populated area.

I think this is because it is easier to see and understand the results of the coding and data. I am not a big fan of some of the other data fetching and cleaning assignments we have done. I would like to do more of this visual data type of work in the future for a final project.
