Number of Deaths Due to Suicide per 100K
Question: is a higher median mortgage price in any way related to the rate of suicides? If median mortgage is 100 and 2 suicide per 100K, the index would be 50; if media is 120 and 4 suicides per 100K, the index would be 30. The higher the index, the better.

I'm not entirely sure what to read from this mashup.
States that are either especially old on average (Florida) or are less productive (Mississippi) appear whiter, while young states (Vermont) and more productive states (Delaware) appear darker orange.

I'm just trying out DataMasher, looking to see what it can do.
