American Professional Degree Correlation Chart

The statistical analysis conducted on geographies consisting of 570,969,920 people shows a weak negative correlation between the proportion of Americans and percentage of population with at least professional degree education in the United States with a correlation coefficient (R) of -0.287 and weighted average of 3.6%. On average, for every 1% (one percent) increase in Americans within a typical geography, there is a decrease of 0.017% in percentage of population with at least professional degree education.
American Professional Degree
It is essential to understand that the correlation between the percentage of Americans and percentage of population with at least professional degree education does not imply a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It remains uncertain whether the presence of Americans influences an upward or downward trend in the level of percentage of population with at least professional degree education within an area, or if Americans simply ended up residing in those areas with higher or lower levels of percentage of population with at least professional degree education due to other factors.
