Map# 10: Choropleth Map


Choropleth maps show quantitative data through the use of various colors and intensity of those colors. One can use this type of map to show density, percent, average value of a certain subject. The map above shows the net cash farm income throughout the United States. The darker the red, the higher the net cash income. Notice the high farm income in Southern California.
