Proportional Circle Maps

Proportional Circle Maps represent data by showing them in relation to the size or proportion of circles on a map. The map above illustrates the different populations in state capitals around the U.S. by the size of the circle which is connected to the map key in this case the bigger the circle the larger the population.
