Introduction

I want to reproduce the figure from (Dash Nelson 2016) depicting commute networks in the United States based on US Census data.

Methods

Some pseudocode:

1. Retrieve ACS commute data
2. Identify the source and destination networks
3. Calculate the edge density for each source-destination pair
4. Thin to a manageable number of nodes based on edge densities
5. plot

as code chunks

```{r}
#| eval: false
#| label: getacs

1. Retrieve ACS commute data
```
```{r}
#| eval: false
#| label: buildnet

2. Identify the source and destination networks
```
```{r}
#| eval: false
#| label: edgedens

3. Calculate the edge density for each source-destination pair
```
```{r}
#| eval: false
#| label: thinnodes

4. Thin to a manageable number of nodes based on edge densities
```
```{r}
#| eval: false
#| label: buildplot

5. Build plot
```
