The contact map seems to be based on area code: https://github.com/michael-danello/iMessageWrapped/blob/cef2... Unfortunately area code of a cell phone number isn't a great indicator of where the owner lives (though to be fair you can't really tell otherwise). Relevant XKCD entry: https://xkcd.com/1129/ In my case my area code (650) is where I went to college, and many if not most of my friends and colleagues seem to be in a similar position.
In Show HN: iMessage Wrapped – your year in texts

I got inspired by Spotify Wrapped to put together this - an iMessage Wrapped with data and visualizations on who/where/what/how/when people texted in 2020. Stack is Flask, Jinja, chart.js, leaflet.js and bootstrap. The app runs locally, and accesses the chat and contact SQLite DBs on OS machines. I've been programming for about 18 months, but this was is the first side project I've released into the wild, so it's been an awesome learning experience.
