Choropleth maps are another version of a thematic map. The above choropleth is classed and represents the percentage of Hispanic or Latino people by county in Florida. The classes of a choropleth map are the variables that the map is depicting. Typically there are five classification methods used in a Classed Choropleth Map. They are natural breaks, nested means, equal interval classes, quartiles, and skewed distributions. The data for this map is compiled using the natural breaks method.
