+#Do the bar and scatter plots tell you different stories? Why?
+#   The bar and scatter plots do tell different stories.
+#   The bar chart is rather limited in that it only tells the mean values of each region
+#     while not showing distribution of values.
+#   Conversely, the scatter plot does not account for mean values but does shows the significant
+#     distribution that exists among the values. Although knowing the mean may be helpful,
+#     the bar graph doesn't showcase that observation values can go as high as 30+ or as low as 1-.
