Explanation of Slides to Come
 On   the following slides we will see two
  different maps zoomed in on Central
  Florida.
 Map A will show you the percentage of
  the population that are obese in the each
  county.
 Map B will show you the percentage of
  the population that are under age 18 in
  the same counties…
Map A
Map B
Summary
   Upon analyzing both maps one can draw several
    conclusions relating to health conditions of this area.
   It appears to be that the county with the highest
    population of people age 18 and under is also the
    population that struggles the most with obesity.
   Another analysis that can be made is that the
    counties further from the center of Florida (such as
    counties close to the shore) have a smaller obesity
    rate.
   Finally one can also conclude that children may be
    a significant part of the population that faces obesity
    because in the majority of counties at least 18.4-
    21.8% of the population are under age 18.
