    Correlations Discovered Between Health Risks and Age, Income

    The more poor households by state, the bigger the risk of obesity. There are some exceptions like DC, where a high rate of poverty does not translate into a high rate of obesity. In fact, DC has the second-lowest rate of obesity in the country. This could lead us to consider additional factors that also affect obesity.
    From the plot, there is no clear relation between the age and the willingness to smoke. The data is spread all over the spectrum. Most of the smoking data is between the ages of 35 and 41. The state of West Virginia has the highest smoking rate (26.7%), where the average age is 41.9 years. Lousiana is a relatively young state where the average age is 36.1 years, but the smoking population accounts for 24%.
    A clear pattern can be established from the plot: the higher the household income the lower the rate of households with no health insurance. Texas is a big outliner with the highest rate of households with no health insurance (24.9%). The state's household-income-median ($53.035) is about the same than the country's average.
