Very cool idea. You don't plan to add data for Europe any time soon?

I'd like to! It'd be pretty straightforward for the parts based on OpenStreetMap i.e. generating travel time areas / points of interest, I'd just need a bigger database. Ingesting global population & demographic data would be a bit of a bigger project since the site is built around US Census territory boundaries at the moment.

It'd definitely something I want to add, but since I'm quite limited in the time I spend on the project, I think it makes sense to keep it US-only for now. Thanks for trying it out!
