Great work on both these series Muon!

Don't you think having Douglas County and Boulder County in the same district could lead to a culture clash? The former has more in common with El Paso County, but by 2010 they will be too large to form 1 district. Boulder should go with Jefferson or Larimer and some smaller counties.

Do you think Idaho will have a third seat in 2020? How would that look, assuming the growth continues in the same places?

I'm surprized North Carolina isn't gaining any seats-wasn't that previously a fast growing state?

It gained a seat in 2000, so it will have to add another 1,500,000 people to get one more seat. Based on 2006 estimates, it will add about 1,290,000.

But as we saw in 2000, the Census Bureau is comically inaccurate, so there's a decent chance North Carolina could get another one.
