I am going to create a visualization of census data (race/age/income). I figure the most natural way to do this is to have a map of the United States and color the map to show the number of people in each category. The map will show the colors based on the number of people or the percent of whole. The fact that each category of data has multiple data points, you will select which data point you will want to see (18-25,80+, black, white), and it will color the map based on that. Another option would be to color the map based on the average as well as on the most prevalent, potentially even eliminating certain data points (i.e. to remove Caucasian to view which minority is prevalent in certain areas).
