The population distribution in Michigan is most heavily concentrated in the south-east region of the state. Wayne county has the highest population density which I expected since Detroit is a part of Wayne county. The western-lower peninsula also has a relatively high population density. The entire upper peninsula of Michigan has a low population density which I also expected to see. Interestingly, the Hispanic population density in Michigan has a similar distribution as the overall population with Wayne, Oakland and Macomb county holding the highest Hispanic population density.
Below is my choropleth map showing the population distribution from 1999 in Michigan
And here is my dot density map showing the distribution of the Hispanic population in Michigan
