This Proportional Circle Map shows the percentage of homes that were built before 1940 in the westeren half of the United States. Proportional Circle maps show relative information by showing circles that represent data that are proportional to each other. Thus meaning, the higher the percentage of homes the bigger the circle; whereas the lower the percentage of homes built before 1940 in each particular state, the smaller the circle.
