The new dataset “Prevention” is a manageable dataset now.
For your assignment, work with a cleaned dataset.
1. Once you run the above code, filter this dataset one more time for any particular subset with no more than 900 observations.

In a paragraph, describe the plots you created and what they show.
The plots I created display health insurance prevalence data across cities and census tracts in South Carolina for 2017. The scatter plot visualizes the prevalence of health insurance by city, where each point represents a different city, colored by the city name. The map plot offers a geographic representation, with circle sizes proportional to health insurance prevalence, and tooltips provide additional city-specific data when clicked. These visualizations help to see the differences in health insurance rates across the state.
