My HeadingHere's a two column layout with a header section that spans the width of both columns. The first table row creates the header and contains a single table cell which uses the colspan="2" attribute-value pair. The website logo typically goes in the header section.The second table row contains two table cells which create the menu column (left) and the content column (right). The colspan attribute is not set in either so they default to colspan="1". |

In the map above you see that in 1850, the first official census in Florida, Miami-Dade County had the lowest population and Leon County had the highest population. Why was Leon County so popular?

Note in the map above that Leon and Miami-Dade County locations are far apart, and had relatively similar populations in 1910 just before Miami began attracting many more people.
In the map above you see that in 2019, Miami-Dade County had the highest population and grew much faster than Leon County since 1910, What led to this dramatic increase in population?.
A Chart created with datawrapper showing county population trends for Florida since the first census

This was created from census data through IPUMS NHGIS database search and the USDA population by county database. You can see the stark contrast in the growth of two counties highlighted in the graph above, Miami-Dade (formerly Dade) and Leon Counties started as the smallest and largest populations in 1850 and reached the same population in 1910. Since 1910 Miami-Dade county has grown much faster and has gone from the smallest in 1850 to the most populated county in 2019. Kinda cool fact about population grown in Florida.
