# redrawn
**Does the map change the answer?** 1.9 million New York City crashes, one
question — do neighbourhoods where speeding is cited more often have more
injurious crashes? — and a different answer from every map of the city.
Between individual crashes the correlation is **+0.055**. Across census tracts
it is +0.262, across police precincts +0.469, across community districts +0.551,
across boroughs **+0.709**. Contiguous equal-size districts drawn deliberately
span **+0.07 to +0.83**. Not one crash record changes; only the boundaries move.
This page re-runs the analysis in your browser. It holds the per-tract crash
counts and the tract adjacency graph and recomputes the zone rates and the
correlation on every interaction, so nothing you see is a stored answer — and
the "draw a new map" button really does build a fresh contiguous partition of
2,310 census tracts.
