LAB 1 (Static Map)
Unemployment is something that means alot to me as i am currently trying to find a job, this is using data from 2006 and i was surprised somewhat to learn the the north/northwest states have relative low rates where the industrial center states around kentucky, michigan and illinois are higher. over all u can see a mostly eastern trend of higher rates. on a side note virgina is one of the lower states. biggest trouble that i had was deciding where to have the cut line for each class cause several states had the same rate. no real issues came up while making the map
