Welcome to The North Carolina Atlas Revisited!

This website offers updates of trends in the state since these trends and patterns were first portrayed in book form in The North Carolina Atlas: Portrait for a New Century, published by the UNC Press in 2000. This site is continuously revised as new information becomes available. It is organized into chapters that include maps, charts, tables, and explanations and analyses of changes and their implications.

Current chapters include: Population; Manufacturing; Politics and Government; Health and Health Care; Air Quality; Weather & Climate; Agriculture; Religion; The Economy; Retail Trade, Banking & Tourism; Public Education; Land Regions, History, and Transportation. Currently in preparation is a chapter on Crime.
