Methods: The first task was to search and locate information of Wisconsin on the US Census Bureau Website. I searched for Population and Housing Units in the state of Wisconsin. After locating the ones I wanted, I downloaded them and unzipped the files. After unzipping them, I was able to look at the MS excel file of the metadata. Doing this, I was able to see if the data would work well or not. After adding the Excel table to Arcmap 10.1, and using a join with another states table, I was able to map the data. Looking at my map then, I could change the symbology to show the data in a friendly way. The resulting maps are shown below.
Results: As you can see from the data, Population and Housing units correlated as one would expect. The higher the population, the more housing units you will get. Near Milwaukee has the highest population and Eastern Wisconsin in general seems to have higher housing units and population.
