Correlations Discovered Between Health Risks and Age, Income

As our visualization shows, there are positive correlations between the percentage of a state's residents living in poverty and those who lack healthcare, as well as with those who smoke. There also appears to be a correlation between poverty levels and obesity, though this relationship is looser.

Interestingly, the ages of Americans who lack healthcare appear to be tightly clustered between 35 and 40.
