Four Data Classification Maps



























Most Appropriate Map - Quantile
I believe the Quantile map is the most appropriate data classification for the percentage of blacks in Escambia County. I believe it is the most appropriate because it best portrays the data along the number line. Also, compared to the other data classification maps, the Quantile map is the most user friendly for visually displaying the percentage differences within the County.
