Dr. Sharon Paynter and the Division of Research Economic Development and Engagement has developed and made available DRIVE East Data, county-level data for NC on agriculture, demographics, economy, education, employment, housing and public health. In each category there are multiple sub-categories. For instance, there are 28 separate maps in public health that depict different health statistics. Perhaps even better than the maps, you can download the data set for each topic.

Fun Facts about Presidential Impeachment (Part III)
Can Donald Trump Be Barred from Holding Federal Office Again?
The answer to this is unclear. However, “Yale Law School professor Bruce Ackerman and Indiana University law professor Gerard Magliocca argued that members of Congress had another, perhaps easier, path to barring Trump from office.
“They pointed to Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, aimed at preventing people from holding federal office if they are deemed to have “engaged in insurrection or rebellion against” the Constitution.
“The professors write that if a majority vote of both houses agree that Trump has engaged in an act of “insurrection or rebellion,” then he would be barred from running for the White House again. Only a two-thirds vote of each house of Congress in the future could undo that result.”
The article of impeachment adopted this provision of the Constitution, claiming that “Trump should be disqualified from holding future office” (from https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2021-01-14/barring-trump-from-holding-office-again)
