Locations of Users Active in Last Month

Inspired by @steevc I decided to make some charts showing where our active users are based, using their own self-declared locations in their profiles. This will not be perfect as users can easily have incorrect information on their profiles, intentionally or just being out of date.

First, here is the chart when we include ALL users actively voting or posting in the last month. As you can see, the vast majority are unknown or uncategorized locations even after manual clean up of the data, alongside the top 20 countries. The point of this chart is to show that the users who share their country in their profile are a small minority overall.

The chart is more readable when we remove those unknowns.

An observation worth noting going through the data manually is that there are cities in Venezuela and Nigeria which individually have more Hive users than most countries, at least if self reporting locations is just as common in any region (it likely is not). This is most true for Caracas and Lagos, both of which are probably the main epicentres of Hive user activity in the world.
