Plot: Obesity Rate & Diabetes Rate in Different Food Environments (County Level)

This graph shows both the obesity rate and diabetes rate at county level.

• "Green" dots represent the low-leve fast food restaurant density counties.
• "Yellow" dots represent the mid-level fast food restaurant density counties.
• "Red" dots represent the high-level fast food restaurant density counties.

If food environment is truely correlated with the health outcomes, visually, we should be able to observe the red bubbles will be on the right-hand upper corner, the yellow bubbles will be in the middle of the graph, and the green bubbles will be on the left-hand lower corner. We do not find any visual evident in this plot suggesting any correlation between food environment and health outcomes.
