Neighboring States

Produced at TWO-N. How many neighbors does each state have? This map reimagines the states as regular polygons with one side for each neighbor. Click a state to see its neighbors up close!

Methodology

When you click on a state, the position of its neighbors approximate their true relative geographic position. The relative positions are calculated using the geographic centers of each state.

	return 10 * (abs(start[0] - target[0]) + abs(start[1] - target[1]))
