I remember a similar thread here.  I post a map, and posters can guess what the map represents.  I check back often, and when someone gets it right I'll let you know.  Then, anyone else can post another map for us to guess on.  If nobody gets it right for at least 24 hours, I'll reveal the answer:

The first map:



I initially deleted this because someone told me that this belongs in the "post random maps" thread, but that seems to be only for elections; the maps here can represent basically any kind of data or facts.

I'm probably wrong, but I'll guess percentage of people native to the state who live there?

It is wrong, but you're on something here. It's about demographics.

Nope. It's a more general concept.

There's definitely a correlation with state admission... is it based on population at the time the state was admitted?

Sol, you're almost there! Smiley

It's not quite the year that the state reached it's max population (otherwise all the states would be purple) but in concrete terms, it is basically this.
