About this piece

Taxation per capita in the United States, an original color lithograph (Plate XXXV) from the Statistical Atlas of the United States based on the results of the ninth census 1870, compiled by Francis A. Walker and published in 1874. The title reads "Map showing the degree of taxation per capita imposed by state, county or municipal authority, within the fiscal year nearest the census year", compiled from the statistics of wealth, taxation and public indebtedness at the ninth census.

The map covers the eastern United States, with the Great Lakes, Florida, the Gulf of Mexico, Cuba and the Bahamas outlined. Counties are tinted in orange, graded by a scale at the right, with the heaviest taxation falling across the Northeast and in patches along the Gulf coast and the Mississippi. Blue lines mark districts at the west, and an explanation is printed beneath the title.

It belongs to the group of plates on wealth and public finance in the atlas.
