Description: Data visualization by Isaac H. Michaels, MPH showing county-level data on physical inactivity and heart disease mortality in Texas.

The dataset was provided by the American Heart Association. This was entered as a static visualization in the student division for the Heart of Texas Data Visualization Contest at the 2019 Healthier Texas Summit.
