Pop vs. soda vs. Coke. Yankees fans vs. Red Sox fans. Over at The Atlantic Cities, Samuel Arbesman and a team of colleagues have used data from cell phone records, sports broadcast blackout zones and more to track some of the country’s informal, internal boundaries. The result is a fascinating selection of maps.

Who knew that behind geographical boundaries, we could have these different boundaries for other stuff as well. This makes it as if without travelling to another country, you are able to find places with almost different cultures in your own state. Sporting culture makes the biggest difference. Perhaps one could save on travel by going to a place that seems different, without even leaving the country.
