This choropleth maps U.S. county-level unemployment rates from 2008 using a quantize scale, which assigns each county to one of nine color classes based on rates from 0 to 15%. The map is rendered with SVG paths for counties, colored via CSS classes q0-9 through q8-9, and includes state boundary outlines overlaid for context. The data is loaded from an external TSV file, and clicking a county or hovering over a state logs the element or feature to the console.
