#Makeover Monday wk 29 – 2019 – Americans having less Sex

For week 29, #MakeoverMonday we are visualizing the changing frequency of Americans. Original Article was published by @washingtonpost and data is sourced from General Social Survey. Here is the original chart:

Data is available on data.world

Whats Good

  • Title and subtitle for the chart is precise
  • First and last year is highlighted in bold
  • Labels explaining what chart means

What I did:

  • Continued using original line chart as it was simple and crisp
  • Aggregated the frequency into 3 categories from the data
  • Allowed users to highlight Sex Frequency using parameter actions
  • Inspired from design used by Andy’s viz
  • Tooltip to show % response for all years
  • excluded 2012 data as it appeared to be wrong

Here is the gif of the visualisation I created (Click on image to get interactive version):
