Population Data and Architecture Articles

In this body of work I aggregate and analyze historical population data with a focus on architectural, urbanizational, and social trends and how they have influenced the world we live in. Most of the data I've collected is from between the years 1800 to 2010 with an emphasis on the year 1900, as it is approximately a median and I consider it to be a pivotal time in history among the transition that lead to the world that we live in today.

Personally, I have an interest in architecture built between 1800-1900, especially Georgian and Victorian examples. Due to this, much of my work has a greater focus on architecture from this time period.

I tend to publish my work in a "sufficiently complete" state and allow myself to subsequently add to and refine the article over time. This results in my work tending to be fluid and changing as I find new and better information.

All of the articles in this body of work use the same universal reference list which can be found here.

Below are the links to the articles that I've written and published related more specifically to population data.
