OLS Regression of Diabetes Percentages By Other Covariables

OLS Regression of Diabetes Percentages By Other Covariables

This is a map of the residuals and other information pertaining to an OLS Regression between Diabetes and our explanatory variables, level of education, percent below poverty level, percent of population NH and percent of population over age 65.

This map assigns each county a color based on whether the actual values were higher or lower compared to the predicted values of the OLS Regression. The red areas refer to areas where the observed values were larger than the predicted values and the blue areas are areas where the observed values were smaller than the predicted values.

The other information illustrates the basics behind and OLS Regression and the main takeaways from the OLS report generated.
