In 2023, The Xylom’s visual journalist team (of one) covered everything from "Cop City" to gun violence in the rural South, from "maladaptive" climate infrastructure in India to flooding in Nigeria. Inspired by a similar year-in-review piece from FiveThirtyEight, here are some of the most interesting — and weird and colorful and complicated — charts we made in the last 12 months.
