Project: Transform a blank data set into a visual design.

Overview:  I chose a data set of new residents in Idaho. My goal was to find out if the data supported some of the claims made by Idaho residents that Californians are the only new residents moving to Idaho. I wanted to demonstrate that there are residents from other states moving to Idaho to dissuade Idaho residents from having a negative attitude towards Californians.
