Social Explorer

There are a number of interactive maps available online, but Social Explorer, a demographic mapping program, offers the most comprehensive analysis I've yet seen. The reliability of the census becomes more questionable in rural areas, but the information presented is accurate enough for most of us. Zoom in on your neck of the woods to see the local population organized by race, job, socio-economic background, and or any number of other categories.
