NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Map the geographic distribution of Native American populations and the enduring footprint of forced removal and reservation systems. This visualization reveals majority-Native counties across Alaska, the Southwest, and northern Great Plains - homelands that survived centuries of displacement - while vast purple regions across the East and South reflect the near-total erasure of indigenous populations through the Trail of Tears and earlier colonial violence.
