Word Clouds of Christmas

December 21, 2017

This December, I surveyed a 312 users from Reddit, Facebook, and, to a lesser extent, other social media sources on how they celebrated (or didn't celebrate) Christmas. You can find an active version of the survey here. I automatically generate a good portion of this article, so I may update it in the future.

Other Articles in Series:

• Part 1 of my series of Christmas articles (general visualizations)
• Second article in series (when do kids stop believing in Santa?)
• Fourth article in series (analyzing and clustering Christmas food & drink)
• Fifth article in series (unpleasant statistics about Santa)

Overview

This is the third (and shortest) article in the series. Here, I show some word clouds to the prompt: "Describe Christmas in three words". I have an overall word cloud, followed by four more word clouds that consist of the following:

1. People who don't celebrate Christmas
2. People who are atheist/agnostic
3. Christians of any kind
4. People who follow non-Christian religions

Source Code

I have the source code for my analysis on GitHub here. All the responses (after removing timestamp/order info) will be released once I finish my article series.
