show all indicators that are representative of population as rates on the map page

[danielbyler]

note from @davelandry: I'll be updating this list as we find more variables

• [x] poverty
• [ ] part time workers
• [ ] graduates
• [ ] ambulatory visits
• [ ] dartmouth health stats (obesity tests, etc)

Based on this map, there is only poverty in LA. Could we make this a rate so it's more meaningful?

[davelandry]

Thanks @danielbyler, I'll see what we can do about getting rates in there. There are some other indicators that could benefit from that as well.

[davelandry]

I've implemented the base logic for this, which can be seen here: http://sunbird.datausa.io/map/?level=state&key=income_below_poverty:pop_poverty_status,income_below_poverty,income_below_poverty_moe,pop_poverty_status,pop_poverty_status_moe

I'm going to keep this issue open for us to go back in and identify the other variables that need it.

Thanks!

https://datausa.io/map/?level=puma&key=num_ppl_pt,num_ppl_pt_moe has the same problem.

https://datausa.io/map/?level=county&key=premature_death - why would we include this if it isn't age adjusted?

https://datausa.io/map/?level=county&key=uninsured - needs better label

https://datausa.io/map/?level=county&key=teen_births - label is wrong. This is per 1,000 women 15-19 http://www.countyhealthrankings.org/measure/teen-births

https://datausa.io/map/?level=puma&key=avg_age_ft,avg_age_ft_moe - average full time age --- worker? I guess?

[danielbyler]

https://datausa.io/map/?level=county&key=grads_total -- same color issue where only LA and the University of Phoenix produce graduates

[danielbyler]

This one might be fixable https://datausa.io/map/?level=county&key=hiv_prevalence_rate - there are a lot of blue but it may really be that skewed

[davelandry]

I've updated (and will continue to update) the initial post in this thread with a list of variables we need to add rates for.

@danielbyler I've also pushed more explicit labels for your other links here. Please keep this thread self-contained to only variables that need rates, and create new issues for individual labelling problems.

I made two issues spinning out of this. I'll keep this self contained. Thanks
