Statistical Geography

Statistical geography is the study of how data about people, places, and environments are organized and analyzed geographically. It involves collecting information like population numbers, income levels, or health statistics and mapping or analyzing them across different locations. This helps identify patterns, trends, and relationships tied to specific areas, supporting informed decision-making in areas such as urban planning, resource allocation, and policy development. Essentially, it combines geography and statistics to better understand how spatial factors influence social, economic, and environmental phenomena.
