Places where the median house has 50 or more books in it?

Cheers,
David.

What does Salt Lake City have in common with Pot County, California...near the Oregan border?

Sorry I didn't follow up sooner.

David's clever, snarky comment is somewhat the right track.

I was not trying to be either of these things. Having 50 or more
books in the house is one of the items in privilege assessments.

Until I saw it the other week, it literally hadn't occurred to me that
this might be something others don't have. Seeing stuff you have and
others don't is much of the point of privilege assessments.

David,

Thank you for sharing your epiphany, and thereby inducing my own.

That being said, your original comment is still on the right track. 

Brian

The map shows the per-capita high school graduation rates.
