Classed Choropleth Map



A classed choropleth map is a type of thematic choropleth map that differences in a variable over a particular area by grouping regions together and representing them with different shades of a color. The map above shows breast cancer rates for white females in the US by state. Each state is assigned a shade, with lighter colors meaning a smaller rate and a higher color meaning a higher rate.
