This example displays population density across Kentucky counties using a choropleth map. A threshold color scale with regularly-spaced breaks assigns color to each county based on population per square mile, while a legend with an axis shows the mapping. The visualization uses d3.geo.conicConformal projection, d3.geo.path for rendering, and TopoJSON data for county boundaries. The code loads county data via d3.json, computes density from population and area properties, and appends SVG paths with tooltips showing county names and densities.
