> The difference $7/hour is almost the same as the minimum wage in Dallas--that's a significant amount that the map disguises. Agreed, but I'm not sure that makes it a bad chart. To me, one of the things the chart is saying is that 1BDR housing wages outside of the $10-13 range are uninteresting. If this is something they checked and know to be true, then deliberately zooming in on that range is useful, because it highlights that variance. If they're hiding relevant information by ignoring things outside of that range, then it's a problem. I mean, it's a choropleth. That already starts edging into "bad chart" territory.
