Anomalies

I have found a few spots that I am suspicious of.

These spots seem to have too many people in them:

• Two high-density plots of dirt, Rancho Mirage, CA
• High density slough, Foster City, CA
• Thousands of people living on California Highway 111 here and here near Palm Springs
• Farallon Islands, off the coast near San Francisco

Note that Golden Gate Park has a non-zero number of people, but I believe that. I believe that there are a fair number of homeless people living in the park.

This tract has a high percentage of occupied housing units and a high percentage of vacant housing units:

• Tract in Michigan

The Salinas Valley State Prison and the Correctional Training Institute tract and the Avenal State Prison tract seem to have very few people in them. It might be that the prison warden just "forgot" to send the census forms in. (Switch to Satellite View and you will see the prisons clearly.)
