Exercise instructions

Create an array called folium_loc from urban_polygon.center
Create a folium map called downtown_map. Set the location argument equal to folium_loc and initialize the map with a zoom_start of 15.
Pass the geometry from the urban_polygon GeoDataFrame to the folium.GeoJson() method. Then call add_to() on that.

Hands-on interactive exercise

Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.

# Create array for called folium_loc from the urban_polygon center point
point = urban_polygon.____[0]
folium_loc = [point.____, point.____]

# Construct a map from folium_loc: downtown_map
downtown_map = folium.Map(location = ____, ____ = 15)

# Draw our neighborhood: Urban Residents
folium.GeoJson(____.____).add_to(____)

# Display the map
display(downtown_map)
