Where this is
Shading: Total Jobs
Lower (0 to 4)Lower-middle (5 to 13)Middle (14 to 34)Upper-middle (35 to 82)Higher (118 to 13,659)No data
Each unit is shaded by its Total Jobs value and grouped into equal-count bands (quantiles) against the other units shown — lighter = lower, darker = higher. It ranks position among the units in view; it does not grade places, and the ranges shift with which units are shown.
The map is bounded to this parent geography — it shows the selected unit among its own siblings only, the same depth rule the drill-down uses. Shading ranks position on the measure among the units shown; it does not grade places.
