CLASSED CHOROPLETH MAP

In a Classed Choropleth Map, areal units are combined into a smaller number of groups and portrayed in intervals.

This Classed Choropleth Map shows the percent of people who are Hispanic per county in Florida based on Census data from 2000. This image’s areal unit is the county, and there are five, natural break, classification intervals. That means the groups are divided into unequally sized groups that attempt to group like data together.
