Mapping 'well being' indicators across the United States

From the American Human Development Project of the Social Science Research Council -- an interactive online mapping tool of health, education, and income indicators across the U.S.. Funded by the Conrad N. Hilton and Lincy foundations. Thanks, Fast Company, for encouraging us to "futz around with it."  


I'm not yet confident about how to best make meaning out of this amalgamation of data... but it's certainly intriguing.


Fun to explore by ZIP code and compare the data to my own impressions of 'quality of life' in various places.  Provocative to ponder what the data reveals (N=??) versus what our personal experiences (N=1).
