When to use this template

It quickly reveals geographic patterns, regional clusters, and outliers, allowing an analyst to identify areas of high or low values at a glance. This visualization is ideal for comparing a metric across all states simultaneously and understanding its geographic context.

  • Datasets with one numeric value per US state.
