I'd like to use dot density to display some data in Arc, but the areas (polygons) I'm displaying it for are so small in some cases that I suspect the pattern is being misrepresented.
If several small areas fall within the size of one 'dot' for example, will ArcGIS suitably aggregate the data from multiple areas to display a dot? If there isn't enough data (for example because the number of households is below the dot quantity), will those be aggregated into neighbouring areas?
If I am concerned about misrepresenting the data in this way, is there a way to work around this?
