This choropleth map displays poverty rates across U.S. counties, with darker blue shades indicating higher percentages and a legend showing the scale from 2% to 18%. The visualization uses d3.geoPath to render TopoJSON county and state boundaries, while d3.scaleThreshold maps poverty values from a CSV dataset to a d3.schemeBlues color range. A linked axis legend with percentage labels is generated using d3.axisBottom.
