Two atlas lenses.One geographic truth.

Ancestry and religion, rebuilt as product surfaces instead of data dumps. Map-first previews, clear structure, and paths into the full explorer — the same underlying counties, seen through two different questions.

Lens · religionReligion atlasTradition-first

Religion as footprint and adherent structure.

Lead with the live footprint map and tradition-level structure, then open denomination shelves only when you want more granularity. Population share and adherent share stay visibly distinct the entire way down the page.

Why two lenses

Same geography, different explanatory story.

Ancestry

Self-identified ancestry reporting from ACS 2024 5-year. Family-first, footprint-native, with political modeling where a stable series exists.

Religion

U.S. Religion Census 2020 with tradition and denomination shelves. Population share and adherent share kept explicit so two very different questions stay separable.
