Data from the US Bureau of Economic Analysis. Plot in R (ggplot2).
Heavily inspired by Adam Tooze’s version [https://x.com/adam_tooze/status/2023480899166450084:](https://x.com/adam_tooze/status/2023480899166450084🙂

Even as a Chicagoan, the Chicago area having more GDP than SF area feels very wrong. We do have a fucktonne of people so I suppose that’s most of it.
I’m a newb to these but having both the dot size and the color being related to GDP feels wrong. Like shouldn’t the dot size be population size and the color alone be GDP?
What’s the deal with west Texas
Many of the city name labels are poorly placed and are easily misidentified. E.g., Cleveland, Baltimore, Philadelphia.
Beautiful, clear illustration. Nicely done.
Nice graphing!! Love me some ggplot2
Quick note, sme of the geometry is off a bit, Salt Lake City should be one county east for example. It looks like you’re plotting using county centroids; if you can find a dataset of the latitudes and longitudes of all metropolitan areas that would really bring this map together!
California checks out. Central valley (South of Sacramento) shitty as ever! Going toe to toe with Florida even.
I’d love to see EU for comparison
the fact that like 3 metro areas produce more than most countries is wild, New York’s GDP alone would make it a top 15 country in the world.
These appear to be counties, not metro areas.
Either Chicago or DC is the wrong color.
If the UK was on here, it would look like riverside
I would’ve guessed that Johnson county, KS, would be higher but I guess having money isn’t the same as making it?
Weird. Almost looks like a voting map
Philadelphia is in delaware?
I find the Tampa circle amusing. Tampa and mid Florida is *notorious* for having terrible employee wages. Even when paying peanuts the “titans of industry” in Tampa can’t get any better than an orange circle. lol
The way the labels are no where near the circles they represent is making me have an aneurism
No metro areas allowed in Connecticut because NYC is too big!
Bigger circles mean bigger bubbles, that is all
Data would be beautiful if they could find Philly and Bmore on a map
I want to see counties by GDP by prrcentage GOP vote….
Genuine question: Is this metro areas or counties? Plenty of big cities have lots of economic productivity outside their county but still in what people would consider the same metro area. DC is the easiest example, where counties in VA and MD are absolutely DC metro and a huge part of the area’s productivity.
hey u/Hot_Split_5490 you deleted this commen
>Seems like some bullshit AI slop. Need BW twr moderation in this sub. Raleigh has a higher listed GDP in the label compared to Jacksonville, but Jacksonville is shaded
trying to figure out what you mean?
