 Tonight I worked on my Geodatabase.  I found some data for water and sewer pipes from the NC One Map project.  www.NCOneMap.com  I clipped them down to just Buncombe county.  Pete is going to continue trying to get some better sewer data from MSD for me.  I also got census data from NC One Map.  It is quite detailed.  I was working with symbolizing it based on total population for each block.  I think I will further refine that by also using the area of each block to get a better idea of the population density.  Above is one version of the map which I used the very bright color ramp on.  That's how I got the county of many colors, which reminds me of The Blue Nile albumn called A Walk Across the Rooftops.

NB:  Don't start your feature class names with zeros.  Probably not starting them with any numbers is a good idea.  ARC not like that, don't do what ARC not like, OK?
