This infographic shows a map of Vancouver BC with information on housing for different neighborhoods. There isn't much aside from the small Condo and Townhouse icons on the map/tables to visually represent housing; make sure your theme comes across clearly. The black background on the 2017 Avg. Price column helps that information stand out, but there should also be a visual key for the color-coding on the Price to Rent Ratio column as it's unclear what pink, white, and blue mean until reading the full Notes section. A different layout might benefit usability for this infographic. Viewers can appreciate the map but need to scroll down to find the corresponding neighborhood — and then back up again to peruse others. The font size is also very small throughout. In all we'd give this a C.
