Map Tutorial

In the upper right side, chose a cancer category. Make sure there is a black check mark by the cancer you chose and not by any other category.  When you chose a cancer a black border should appear around your choice.

Next, view income or education by state. Income and education follow each other closely. In other words if you have more education you are likely to have more income and if you have more income it is likely you have had more education.  Income is shown per capita and education by race and gender.  Notice differences between states and then  see if those states that are either high or low have different rates of cancer.

Chose black or white and male or female and then a time period.
