Unstandardized Choropleth map

http://bigthink.com/strange-maps/308-the-pop-vs-soda-map

An standardized choropleth map is a type of choropleth map that compares raw percentage data with nothing associating the different sections. Nothing is averaged out nor does there need to be an even amount of intervals. The above map shows the counties of the United States and their percentage use of each generic name for soft drinks. "Pop" is predominantly used in the midwest states, while "Coke" is used mostly in the south.
