College Basketball Population Game
College Basketball Population Game
The 85th annual tournament features over 60 college teams competing for the championship title. The College Basketball Population Game is an interactive visualization that takes a closer look at the population of college towns and cities and features U.S. Census Bureau data points for those places. We hope you enjoy our version of March bracketology.
If you have not decided which teams you are pulling for in the tournament maybe you’ll find a connection to your state, college, or hometown that will help you decide. Good luck!
