January & February 2021 STATS FOR STORIES (SFS)  Tomorrow is Super Bowl LV. The Census Bureau has created two visuals for this event. The interactive data visualization "Big Game Census:2021" maps the hometowns of all players of the Kansas City Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The infographic "Top 50 Metro Areas in the U.S. Have 31 NFL Teams" features the metro areas represented by all 32 NFL teams. Can you guess which team is from the smallest metro area (#158)?   Super Bowl LV (55): February 7 The game involves two top-50 U.S. metro areas by estimated population: #18 Tampa (3,194,831) vs. #31 Kansas City (2,157,990) playing in Tampa.

The Big Game Census interactive visualization takes a closer look at the players' place of birth, and gives you access to Census data points for those places. Click on a city or state to begin. Next, explore the table and bar chart to learn more about the birthplaces of the players in the big game.
