If I want to know about Pittsburgh – the scales of the graph obscure it

Too much noise

No format on the Y axis No scale on the X axis The colors are too similar

No format on the Y axis

Don’t require the reader to do mental math to read your chart

Compare the next two charts Which shows more rapid growth?

They are exactly the same I cut the scale on the first one to make the change look more dramatic.
