Reply to comment by JPAnalyst in [OC] Gun Homicide Rate vs. Gun Ownership Rate in the United States by Social_Philosophy

Yeah, I would definetly increase the size of the points and all text further, if I was going to post again. It seems pretty good when clicked fullscreen, but everything is a little small at the default size reddit embeds it at.

Good call on abbreviations and outliers.

For anyone who wants to know, the highest gun ownership rate is Montana at 65.7%, the highest gun homicide rate is Louisiana, at 9.29 per 100K, and the lowest for both is Hawaii.

I actually realized I screwed up the chart, the highest gun homicide rate is DC at 19.72, I completely cut it off the top of the chart.

DC is not a state. If you included it, then your title is wrong.

"...vs a percentage of households owning a firearm in each US state"

Fortuitous that I failed to include then, ain't it?

Ah I thought you meant you included it but just GRAPHICALLY cut it off.

(Not the same thing as not including it at all, since you have an r^2 value listed as well which would still be influenced by something not visible)
