What to borrow
We could pair our own city or regional data with a simple two-axis comparison and credit the chart maker, then point readers to a fuller collection on our site to encourage saves and shares.
Careful
Do not over-read the result as proof of design quality, since design polish and self-labelling were not measured, and do not assume the same reach without a comparable audience.
