I really liked this idea of using a histogram as a legend in a choropleth map (since land isn't unemployed; people are), so I made a little guide to doing it with #rstats, {ggplot2}, and {patchwork}

What appears to be a massive flock of birds in red, purple and blue colours in a pale blue sky. Each "bird" represents a bird species, and their colour represents their conservation status from the IUCN Red List. Around one third of species appear to be near threatened, endangered or extinct
This dataviz is absolutely amazing 😍 Global bird species' conservation status displayed as a massive flock!

A radial bar chart titled ‘Pixar Film Ratings’ displaying the average ratings of Pixar films based on Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and Critics’ Choice Scores. Each bar represents a film, with lengths corresponding to the score. Bars are color-coded based on CinemaScore grades: gold for A+, green for A, orange for A-, and white for films with no CinemaScore data. The highest-rated film is Toy Story (1995) with 97.5, while the lowest is Cars 2 (2011) with 54.7. Data from {pixarfilms} R package.

Slope chart showing the percent of households lacking plumbing in California counties from 2022 to 2023. Humboldt County shows the highest increase, rising above 1.5%, followed by notable increases in Placer, Kings, Mendocino, and Lake counties. Gray lines in the background represent other counties in California. Data source: tidycensus.
Bubble map of the U.S. showing changes in the percentage of households lacking plumbing facilities by county from 2023–2022. Direction of change are represented by circles with green circles indicating a decrease and orange circles indicating an increase, with size reflecting magnitude. Generally, areas of the western U.S. display a decrease in percentage of households lacking plumbing facilities, while pockets of increases are observed across the eastern U.S. We provide arrows and callouts for McKinley County, NM (-0.93%) and Orange County, TX (+2.3%). Data source: tidycensus.

#TidyTuesday week 4: Water Insecurity 💧
Plumbing facilities are improving in 22 states, and it is getting worse in 28.

#TidyTuesday - week 4 - Water Insecurity - and my first time sharing what I've made online. Plot was made using ggplot2, and I fine-tuned the graphics in Illustrator.
Might share my code on GitHub later (after I clean it up a bit) :D

#TidyTuesday week 3 - Water Insecurity.
Created this tile map using #Tableau. Thanks to @nnpereira.bsky.social for this week's dataset.
#dataviz
Percentage of households lacking plumbing (2023). Four out of the five U.S. Counties with the highest percentage of households without complete indoor plumbing overlap with the boundaries of the Navajo Nation Reservation and Off-Land Trust Land. The maximum percentage among counties was 3.9%, while the maximum among American Indian/Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian Areas was 5%.
#TidyTuesday week 4 ✅
This week’s data is from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.
I took a look at how the data on lack of indoor plumbing among U.S Counties compares to other census provided geographies, specifically American Indian/Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian Areas.
#rstats
Bar chart showing changes in U.S. county-level water insecurity from 2022 to 2023. The chart reveals that 46% of counties saw increased water insecurity, with 35.5% experiencing a major increase (>50%). 27.6% saw a major decrease, while 16.4% had a moderate decrease, and 10.4% experienced a moderate increase. 10.1% of counties had stable conditions. Annotations highlight that 44% fewer counties were affected by major decreases and 46% more counties became vulnerable to water insecurity.

Stylized illustration of the water cycle of the lower 48 United States, showing the fate of water that enters through precipitation. Most of the water returns to the atmosphere through evapotranspiration, but much of the water ends up in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, in Canada, or in the Gulf of Mexico through streamflow.
Map of water limitation in the lower 48 United States by watershed. Areas with relatively high water limitation are in the high plains, Texas, California, and the Mississippi Embayment hydrologic regions.
