    I think you have that backward. The red is showing the higher percentage of people who exercise. Which if the case, states around Mississippi exercises the most, while those in Washington and Oregon exercise least. This could suggest those those in warmer climates exercise more.

    The first map shows life expectation over 80+, I believe to correlate more with affluence. Basically the more money you have, the higher the chance of living longer

      No, it’s a map of what percent say they don’t exercise at all. I should have included the legend and title, but I’ve corrected the verbiage in the original post.

      Are you of the opinion that north dakota, south dakota, Vermont, New Hampshire, etc are filled with wealthy people? I know you want to hate rich people, which is great, but that doesn’t seem to be the whole story here.

        Well, yeah ok. It’s understandable now that you fixed the wording. Why would I hate rich people? Why are you making such an assumption? It’s absolutely wrong anyway.
