Maps, Charts, and Diagrams

This is my Heartmap. The central heart shaped map piece is Nashville, where I live. The black tape radiating out from Nashville indicates the driving distance to that city from Nashville. Within every heart shaped map piece, there is a US city where a member (or members) of my family lives. Beside each heart, I have added a diagram of the family members and the total people I love in that city. It's a little hard to see, so here is a recap of the information:
Nashville: 7 members: Suzi, Dave, Sweet Pea, Bill, Tyler Mallory, Kiki, and Alex. Mom is here 5 months a year.
2020 miles west in Anaheim, CA: 1: Brad
192 miles north in Louisville, KY: 6: Mike, Logan, Marty, Nick, Elsa, Hank
507 miles north: Wilmette, IL: 3: Brad, Mary Ann, and Olivia
334 miles south: Macon/Columbus, GA: 7: Jack, Jennifer, AJ, Blakely, Julia, Lynn, Eliza Grace
877 miles south: Fort Lauderdale, FL: 1: Mom
