Correlation Map: Risk vs. Cost

💡 What does this chart tell us?

Counties in the top-right corner face a "double threat": high climate risk and a high insurance burden. Notice the dense cluster of large bubbles (high population) in this zone—particularly in states like Florida and Louisiana—indicating that millions of Americans are facing rising insurance costs due to climate risks.

*Note: Insurance burden is based on state-level average premiums, which is why counties within the same state align horizontally (forming the visible stripes).

* Bubble size represents county population. Hover over a bubble to see county details.
