Nothing like a solid visual to get the point across.
not to question the data, but to me it seems not too scientific to link the phenomena to just a single parameter in the population, i'm sure there're other factors at play as well, besides low income, or low income is intertwined with other factors and doesn't exist without them
Glad my county is dark green and dotless. #LeonCounty #Florida
