Classed Chloropleth Maps

Classed Chloropleth Maps use color coding to label data. Due to the amount of labeling the creator has to determine (colors, shades, ranges) these maps will often look very different from one another depending on the creator. This map shows the ratio of males to females according to the 2000 census. The map can also be classified as planimetric, statistical, and a type of chloropleth map.
