Nice visualisation.

The data source site (http://data.london.gov.uk) is really good too. Click the circles for more data. For example, the recycling one reveals air quality info. I can see why they won an ODI award (http://theodi.org/news/odi-2015-award-winners). Much better than the national one (https://data.gov.uk).

Yeah it is surprisingly excellent - it was a big inspiration for doing this side project!

For me, the legends do not correlate well with the visualizations and made it difficult to interpret the data. I only saw two sizes and these did not correlate well with the sizes on the visualization. Maybe it's a function of my using other sizing parameters than land area?

Maybe raise an issue on https://github.com/alexander-brett/alexander-brett.github.io and I can look into your exact issue? Thanks for the feedback.

It's not a bug. It's a design issue of the legend not explaining the output in a way that works for me. Anyway, it's ok with me to enter into the bug tracking system on my behalf.

As someone who gets stuck more in data/spreadsheets - this has given me something interesting to think about.

Not much to add except a thanks for the blog post about it and for broadening my scope.

Nicely done! It would be good to see more up-to-date data. E.g. 2015/6 unemployment data would be much more useful than 2011. London Datastore may have this?

I think the years there are the most up-to-date available for those particular axes - certainly the unemployment data is sourced from the census which is only carried out once a decade.
