This is from a brief study I did back in June 2021. I am cleaning up my website, and I want this post to live here on the blog. So, now it does. Yay.
How do we define our cities? What shapes our cities? Dots are the active Divvy stations from June 12, 2021. Lines mark the Divvy trips taken between those stations (as the crow flies, not related to roads at all because I can't do that yet). I love how this data suggests the physical boundaries of Chicago, obviously shaped by Lake Michigan.
