What does 1% look like?

Due to my apparently chronic unemployment, I'm jonesing for a new project. That new project is going to be a portrait project that hopefully will be a statistically accurate(according to the 2000 census) slice of Oregon City shown in portraits. I'm going to have portrait events where people can stop by and have some photos made as well as scheduling some portraits of specific people I want to photograph.

I'm hoping to have my first 1% portrait done this week.

Here are my overall numbers I want to hit

  • 1% = 257 people 
    • Under 5: 21
    • 5-18 years old: 48
    • 18-65 years old: 162
    • 65 and over: 26
    • Female:131
    • Male:126
    • White: 236
    • Black:15
    • American Indian: 3
    • Asian: 3
    • Hispanic: 13
