    Neat data, but it seems like starting the coloring at 40% is really high.

    I’m curious what this would look like if they counted counties with 25% and above degree requirements.

      not really, that’s roughly the percentage for the entire population of the country.

        Exactly. The less educated population matters just as much as the more educated. Those people are not represented in this map.

          And those are the people that the democrats ignored.

          here’s all the counties by education attainment. high school, 4-year college, graduate/professional degree.

            Other than the obvious typo on the top chart, this is really interesting information.

          Why would they be? The map is clearly not about that information. That would be a map titled “percent people 25+ WITHOUT a bachelor’s degree.”
