Bivariate Choropleth Maps

The purpose of a Bivariate Choropleth Map is to accurately demonstrate a relationship between different variables within the same map. To accomplish this task, bivariate maps require the use of distinctly different graphic symbols or colors. This particular map displays the percentage of people living in New York over 25 without a H.S. Diploma (Represented by blue circles) and the three colors represent percentages of population below poverty level.
