  It is based on the state minimum wage, although about 10 states still have their minimum wage matched to the federal $7.25 per hour

    As I was looking at it, I was thinking it could definitely be that based on the extreme cost of housing on the west coast even with a $15 min wage. Interesting and completely unsurprising graphic, thanks for creating it!
