This map displays two county-level metrics for the state of Washington: median household income (blue shades) and the percentage of the population 18+ who are Veterans (red shade dots). We chose to use FactLook’s geocoding feature (Location: Street Address) to place markers at each county’s courthouse address and tied the population percentage data to these markers. The larger and deeper red the dot the greater the percentage of veterans living in that county. Clicking on the dot (as shown) displays further data about each metric.
