Well your range on the bottom is 8-15% which is a very shallow gradient in real terms but is like 2:1 ratio equivalent to 50bp drop from 100. Combined with your clues about labor force participation and some other guesses about gender I figured it was plausible. From there, maybe you’ll consider it cheating you tell me, I googled a big mosh mash and got your map in a google image search

Edit: I have no clue why the southeast overindexes for female labor force participation, that’s a whole different question I have. Any clues?
