Makeover Monday: How many people earned the Federal minimum wage?


Original Visualization:


What works well?

  • Colors saturation helps to understand the scale of the percentage.
  • Using a map showing data for each state is good.
  • Adding the source of the data.

What could be improved?

  • Adding an option to select different years.

What I did?

  • I used a hexmap to show the average percentage of minimum wage of each state.
  • I created a line chart to show the trend of the Federal Minimum Wage by year.
  • I created a line chart to show the trend of the averag percentage of minimum wage by category (At minimum wage, Below minimum wage and Total minimum wage)
