Crime_dataset_cities vs crime rate
This bar chart visualizes violent crime rates per 100,000 residents across U.S. metro areas from 1975 to 2015, comparing average rates for each city using data from the UCR crime dataset. The bars are sorted descending by crime rate, revealing Detroit as the highest and Nassau County as the lowest. Built with the vega-lite-api, it uses a bar mark with q/x/y channel encodings, a tooltip aggregating total population, and custom axis styling from a shared config.
