The map illustrates that the population center of the United States shifted from Indiana to Illinois. Text printed at the top of the map says, "Center of Population 1790-1950." Text at the bottom says: "Hello Illinois! Goodbye Indiana!" Across the center of the map are a line of several stars, indicating the shifting center of population.
