This graph explores variation in high school education attainment within selected race and Hispanic origin groups by sex and nativity between regions. Attainment of a high school diploma (or equivalent level of education) is generally very high in the U.S., so this graph focuses on the percentage of the population 25 and older who do not have that level of education. There are notable differences between foreign-born and native population among many groups. For example, in the West, 57 percent of Hispanic foreign-born males had less than a high school education compared with 19 percent of Hispanic native-born males. Nineteen percent of Asian foreign-born females had less than a high school diploma compared with 5 percent of Asian native-born females.

Of the major interstates in the country, I-5 passes through the second-largest population (behind only I-95 on the nation's east coast). In its path from southern California to Washington State, I-5 traverses densely populated areas of Los Angeles, Portland, and Seattle but, in contrast to the I-95 transportation corridor, there are long stretches of I-5 that pass through areas with very low population density such as California's Central Valley. Selected cities along the route are labeled, for reference.

In 1890, the Superintendent of the Census described the western part of the country as having so many pockets of settled area that a frontier line could no longer be said to exist. The advance of the frontier line that characterized shifts in population distribution for the previous 100 years was complete. This series of maps highlights population expansion into new territory, subsequent gains in population density, and increasing urbanization.

Running from Los Angeles to Jacksonville, I-10 passes through 8 states and several major cities and traverses the 3rd largest population among the country's interstate highways. Population density within 5 miles of the interstate show several lengths with very low population density, including stretches between El Paso and San Antonio. Selected cities along the route are labeled, for reference, with cities of 250,000 or more shown in bold and with filled circles.

Running from Florida to Maine, I-95 passes through 15 states and several major cities. I-95 serves the most densely populated region of the U.S., the Boston-to-Washington corridor. Peaks and valleys in population density within 5 miles of the interstate show several stretches of continuously built-up area, especially evident from Petersburg, VA to Lewiston, ME. Selected cities along the route are labeled, for reference.

Just over half of the congressional districts in the country have shares of their population under age 5 that are greater than or equal to the national average of 6.4 percent. States with higher percentages of their population under age 5 tend to be found in the West and South. Utah's 3rd congressional district has the highest percentage of young children in its population, with 10.5 percent, and California's 30th has the lowest, at 4 percent.
