Puerto Rico not available in many datasets #34

Because it is an unincorporated territory instead of a state, very few datasets have much data for it. When there isn't data for a property for a state, it currently displays a warning alert box and the object becomes gray and flat. Because it's such a common case to not have it's data, should we suppress the box for Puerto Rico?

Actually, even when Puerto Rico is represented, for some reason, Census Bureau chooses to create mutually exclusive data sets. ACS has plenty of properties which are PR specific and other properties which exclude PR.

Poor Puerto Rico. :(
