It's a familiar map, but it has fresh data, and is interactive. It's a map of poverty in America, measured by the percentage of people in each county in the 2020 American Community Survey (the continuous poll by the Bureau of the Census) who gave an income figure that was below the federal poverty threshold for that year. Appalachia, the Black Belt, Indian Country and the Rio Grande stand out.
