This visualization maps the high-school dropout rate for 18–24-year-olds across Mississippi counties. A point on the map represents each county, positioned by its FIPS code and shaded by the proportion of young adults who have dropped out, revealing clear regional clusters of higher and lower educational attainment. The chart uses a geographic layout to show how the dropout rate—ranging from under 5% in university counties like Oktibbeha and Lafayette to over 38% in Issaquena County—varies across the state. A dropdown or tooltip interaction allows readers to explore county-level values (e.g., population and dropout counts), while the color scale makes high- and low-risk areas immediately visible. The map emphasizes spatial inequality in educational outcomes within Mississippi, and invites questions about socioeconomic and policy drivers behind the patterns.
