Our data comes from Zillow and we use median list price per square foot to derive how many square feet could be purchased with half a million dollars in all 50 states. Our viz is a grid map indicating the purchasing amount for each state: a larger square and lighter shade of pink indicates that more square feet can be purchased in that state.
Half-A-Mill – Million (2000)
If you are looking to purchase more real estate for your money, head south: Mississippi and West Virginia are the only states in America where half a million dollars will get you more than 5,000 square feet. Housing in these states is a bargain: the average home price in West Virginia is one-third the price of homes in Washington, D.C. And, while Gulf states like Mississippi and Alabama offer lots of real estate for your money, keep in mind that it will cost more to insure homes in these states as they are at risk for hurricanes and floods.
Results: The global diabetes prevalence in 2019 is estimated to be 9.3% (463 million people), rising to 10.2% (578 million) by 2030 and 10.9% (700 million) by 2045. The prevalence is higher in urban (10.8%) than rural (7.2%) areas, and in high-income (10.4%) than low-income countries (4.0%). One in two (50.1%) people living with diabetes do not know that they have diabetes. The global prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance is estimated to be 7.5% (374 million) in 2019 and projected to reach 8.0% (454 million) by 2030 and 8.6% (548 million) by 2045.
Upper panel shows number of hypertensive individuals in millions by world region and sex in 2010 and lower panel shows number of hypertensive individuals in millions by world region and sex in 2000. Comparisons between 2010 and 2000 absolute numbers were statistically significant (p
It was on this day 15 years ago that Alex Rodriguez and the Texas Rangers agreed to terms on a 10-year, $252 million contract whose extravagance chortled at every other sports contract in history. The numbers were staggering on Dec. 11, 2000, and they remain formidable a decade and a half after Rangers owner Tom Hicks and general manager Doug Melvin extended the offer.
The Rangers could only stomach the deal for three seasons. Melvin's successor, John Hart, traded Rodriguez to the New York Yankees in February 2004 for All-Star second baseman Alfonso Soriano and a player to be named later -- infielder Joaquin Arias. Texas agreed to assume $67 million of the $179 million remaining on the pact.
Nearly a dozen years later, that $67 million figure still stands as the largest amount absorbed by a team trading a burdensome contract. Only the $60 million swallowed by the Los Angeles Angels in the Josh Hamilton trade to Texas last year is even close.
Rodriguez exercised his right to void the final three years of the contract after seven seasons, and agent Scott Boras revealed the news during the eighth inning of Game 4 of the 2007 World Series -- just as the rival Red Sox were putting the finishing touches on a sweep of the Rockies. Yankees executive Hank Steinbrenner initially said there was "no chance" the team would re-sign Rodriguez, but six weeks later Rodriguez inked a new 10-year, $275 million deal with New York.
Among players in all U.S. team sports, only Giancarlo Stanton has clearly eclipsed either of Rodriguez's contracts in terms of total value. Last year, Stanton signed a back-loaded deal worth $325 million over 13 years with the Miami Marlins. Miguel Cabrera is also in the conversation, having signed a massive extension with the Detroit Tigers last year. Some observers view the Cabrera deal as a 10-year, $292 million pact, while others consider it an eight-year, $248 million extension.
Two days before Rodriguez agreed to terms with Texas, the Rockies had given Mike Hampton the richest deal in baseball history at $121 million for eight years. That topped the nine-year, $116.5 million pact Ken Griffey Jr. had signed with the Cincinnati Reds in February 2000. Hours after A-Rod committed to the Rangers, Manny Ramirez accepted an eight-year, $160 million offer from the Red Sox.
Between 2015 and 2020, the rate of deforestation was estimated at 10 million hectares per year, down from 16 million hectares per year in the 1990s. The area of primary forest worldwide has decreased by over 80 million hectares since 1990.
It is not only the trees that make a forest, but the many different species of plants and animals that reside in the soil, understorey and canopy. Estimates of the total number of species on Earth range from 3 million to 100 million (May, 2010).
Some 144 000 species of fungi have been named and classified so far. However, it is estimated that the vast majority (over 93 percent) of fungal species are currently unknown to science, indicating that the total number of fungal species on Earth is somewhere between 2.2 and 3.8 million (Willis, 2018).
Some 1.3 million species of invertebrates have been described. However, many more exist, with some estimates ranging from 5 million to 10 million species (Ødegaard, 2000). Most are insects, and the vast majority live in forests.
Water use and pollution also take place during clothing production. About 20 percent of industrial water pollution is due to garment manufacturing, while the world uses 5 trillion liters (1.3 trillion gallons) of water each year for fabric dyeing alone, enough to fill 2 million Olympic-sized swimming pools.
Despite being a leading driver of employment growth for decades, manufacturing has shed employment over the past 40 years as the U.S. economy has shifted to service-providing industries. In June 1979, manufacturing employment reached an all-time peak of 19.6 million. In June 2019, employment was at 12.8 million, down 6.7 million or 35 percent from the all-time peak.1 Since 1979, employment fell during each of five recessions, and in each case, employment never fully recovered to prerecession levels.2 This Beyond the Numbers article looks at the broad employment trends in manufacturing over the past 40 years, as well as the trends in specific industries that have been most affected, such as fabricated metals and machinery, and computer and electrical products, and apparel and textile industries. Data are from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Employment Statistics (CES) program.
By June 2019, manufacturers of both durable goods and nondurable goods lost more than one-third of jobs held in June 1979.3 Employment in durable goods fell by 4.3 million, while nondurable goods lost 2.5 million jobs over the 40-year span.
Durable goods industries also served as a good indicator that a recession was looming. With the exception of the recession in the early 1980s, durable goods employment reached a peak at least 6 months before the beginning of a recession. After each recession, durable goods employment never quite recovered before turning down again. After both recessions in the 1980s, only about half of the lost jobs returned. During the recession of 1990, durable goods experienced a long downturn; employment reached a peak 19 months before the recession began and did not turn up again until 28 months after the recession ended. Durable goods lost 2 million jobs in both the 2001 and 2007 recessions. However, since February 2010, durable goods has experienced consistent growth and had recovered 1 million jobs as of June 2019.4
Wood products and furniture experienced cyclical job gains and losses from June 1979 until April 2000, when it reached an employment peak. Since then, the industry has lost half a million jobs, or 60 percent of the April 2000 peak.
Beginning in 2001 through the end of the Great Recession, computer and electrical products suffered steep jobs losses.7 Since then, however, employment has been flat. In total, computer and electrical products lost over 1.1 million jobs from January 1990 to June 2019, more than double the jobs losses of fabricated metals and machinery combined. (See table 2.)
Employment in nondurable goods manufacturing remained relatively flat from June 1979 to January 1990, largely because of offsetting movements in apparel and textile products and in printing and publishing. (See chart 4.) Apparel and textile products suffered the largest employment loss (about 423,000 jobs) of nondurable goods manufacturing industries, while printing and publishing added the most jobs (about 328,000) during the time period. The job losses in apparel and textile products continued from January 1990 until June 2019, with the industry cutting 1.4 million jobs, or 55 percent of all job losses in nondurable goods. Printing and publishing continued to add jobs until reaching an employment peak of 1.9 million in August 2000. By June 2019, employment in printing and publishing was down 36 percent from the August 2000 peak. Of all the manufacturing component industries, food manufacturing was the only industry to add jobs from January 1990 to June 2019. (See table 2.)
Still, how much space seven figures will buy in different parts of the country ranges drastically. A million dollars could fetch buyers less than 800 square feet in New York City and well over 5,000 square feet in the suburbs of cities such as Detroit and Memphis.
According to listings on sites such as Trulia and Zillow, $1 million home sizes vary in each of the United States' largest metros by population. Findings prove similar to how average $250,000 homes vary depending on location: homes in metros with lower costs of living offer more space for the same price tag.
Today, millions of women in unions who teach our kids, fight our fires, build our homes and nurse us back to health owe a debt to the Lowell mill girls. They taught America a powerful lesson about ordinary women doing extraordinary things. 2ff7e9595c
