The issue is you have hard boundaries at the coasts. So as pop grows it has to move away from the coasts. I wonder if this is gross population growth. Given the hard boundaries might be more accurate to map each state as percent of total us population over time. So if this is gross pop, it might be good to compare with pop percentage.

[@conorknoxy]

It says on the map, they are changing to proportion of population. As in, 1/3rd the population takes up 1/3rd of the area. It wouldn't be possible for it to work as a map for gross population

The reason the states move that way is because as they grow, they of course need somewhere to go with the extra mass they gained. And really the only place that lost a large amount of space was the Midwest like wyoming. The growing states could only go towards the center because that was the only available space to take up, because that was the only space shrinking
