American Census: 1940 vs 2010

The National Archives just released 1940 census data in its entirety. Someone made it easy to look at with pictures, compared with 2010.

Some of the findings? The earning gap is closing between men and women. America is less white (though still predominately white) today. People are waiting longer to marry, many past the age of 34.
