A snapshot of USA every ten years, beginning in 1790 (the first census). Showing the states that were added between census’s. Also showing the population center change with every census.
In 1790 Virginia included Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky.
The population center crosses the Mississippi River in 1980.
The gif works on my computer but not my iPhone. I’ll try to figure that out.

Comparing and contrasting information mapped to the continental United States of America, hence Maps Of the Continental United States (MOCUS).
Feel free to send me links to other interesting MOCUSes.
Urban dictionary:
Mocus - Adj. A state of confusion, often referring to the state of mind brought about by detoxification. Derived from "mostly out of focus."
You need to forgive his blithering; he just got out of detox so he's really mocus.
