Map of the Day: US counties divided by one-third of COVID deaths
2020-05-29
[AEI Blog] The map above (click to enlarge) shows three geographical regions of the US by counties that each account for one-third of the COVID-19 deaths as of about May 8:

  • The red region shows the area of the US that represents one-third of COVID deaths in counties that account for only 4% of the US population.

  • The yellow region shows the area that represents one-third of COVID deaths in counties that account for only 11% of the US population.

  • The green area shows the area that represents one-third of COVID deaths in counties that account for 85% of the US population.

    As I reported on CD a few days ago on COVID deaths by US states:

  • More than 40% of the 96,596 COVID-19 deaths as of May 22 have occurred in two states: New York (28,900) and New Jersey (11,081).

  • Nearly half (48%) of COVID-19 deaths have occurred in three states: New York (29.9%), New Jersey (11.5%), Massachusetts (6.4%).

    MP: The map above of COVID deaths by US county shows a much higher level of granularity than my recent map of deaths by state and illustrates graphically the disproportionate concentration of COVID deaths in selected counties in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Illinois (Chicago area) and Michigan (Detroit area). Interestingly, two-thirds of COVID deaths in the US have occurred in counties that represent only 15% of the US population.
