I’m not sure what year this is based on 

but the data is pulled from “State Rankings – Statistical Abstract of the United States” from Charles Zaiontz blog.

I’m working on multiple correlations and combinations and wanted to just check some things.

I derived z scores for each state and added them (excluding white, as I thought it was irrelevant to quality).  I inverted some values to make sure they made sense.

Chart should be self explanatory
