File talk:Utah Municipality Population Density.png

The image name is misleading--it's not really a map of municipality population density, it's a map of municipality population. I'm new enough to this that I'm not sure that if I change the image name I won't possibly break something, though. --DBowie 19:21, 23 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

I was going to say the same thing, but I am not sure how this can be corrected either. Also, on maps where an area is colored, this normally does indicate density. Mere representations of population size are normally done by different shapes and sizes of dots that indicate towns, not by coloring in their exact areas. Also, the limits between classes appear extremely arbitrary - normally categories would be '0-20,000' '20,000-50,000' etcetera, not '15,025-42,670' etcetera. Is there a reason for this bizarre classification? 94.208.18.55 (talk) 22:19, 23 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
