Native American Tribal Mapper
The initial map is a nationwide map showing Native American population by census tract.
At a scale of 50 miles, tract-level American Indian population counts display in white boxes. Streets display at 5 miles. Reservation and other census designated boundaries are
displayed by blue lines. Hawaiian homeland boundaries are also included.
To view the population counts by tribe, click the INFO tool and then click on the map.
Tribal population counts by census tract can then be accessed via the Census Tract field in the pop-up window. The pie charts are scaled by population and colors show the
relative percentages of tribes by census tract. Census respondents could choose more than one tribe.
Additional maps include 2000 census data on ethnicity, education, and poverty. Change maps by clicking the
drop-down menu under "Compare Maps" on the left. Depending on the zoom level, these maps display county, tract, and block-group level themes.
 To maximize the viewable area, toggle off the history folder. Map links can be e-mailed or bookmarked for future reference. Use the arrow buttons on your browser to compare previously viewed maps. Click the HELP icon
for additional assistance.

Map 7 -- Language Minority
(18+ non-English speakers who do not speak English "very well")
This thematic map shows voting age non-English speakers who do not speak English "very well". This category includes all non-English
speakers 18 and over who speak English "well", "not well", or "not at all".
At a scale of about 5 miles , the number (by block group) of 18+ non-English speaking persons who do not speak English "very well" is displayed in
purple boxes.
Note: The language minority map is not directly comparable to Maps 11 and 12. Those maps show English proficiency by age for Spanish
speakers as a percentage of the Spanish-speaking population, rather than as a percentage of the overall voting age non-English speaking population. The maps also employ
a more restrictive definition for limited English -- "speak English not well" or "not at all". (see Map

Map 11 -- 5-17 Limited English-Speaking Ability (Spanish speakers only)
Maps 11 and 12 are color-coded at the block group level only. Color coding is not applied to the county or tract levels (75-200-mile scale), since the
absolute numbers depicted by the dots are more meaningful . The dots are scattered randomly by tract or county, and do not represent specific population centers..
ZOOM IN or use the FIND button for block group level analysis (i.e. a scale of about 0 to 50 miles)
At the tract level, scaled blue dots represent persons (50 and higher) with limited English-speaking ability; and at the county level scaled red dots
represent persons (100 and higher) with limited English speaking ability. At a scale of about 10 miles, the actual block-group level numbers are displayed in purple
boxes.
Color coding shows the percentage of Spanish speakers who either "do not speak English well" or "do not speak English at all". At a scale of about 10
miles, block group population counts for these two limited English categories are displayed in purple boxes.
Note: Some official definitions (for instance, Voting Rights Act Sec. 203 language minority coverage) extend the term "limited
English" to include persons who "speak English well". Under these interpretations, just one category -- "Speak English Very Well" -- defines persons
who are considered proficient in English (see Map 27).

Note: Undercount rates are calculated after removing the group quarters population. The Census Bureau did not adjust for this population because it was excluded
from the Accuracy and Coverage Evaluation.
