Compare Two States
IX · Any two of 43Pick a state for each column. The injury-rate bars share one scale with a national-average tick, so both the bar length and the badge tell you where each state sits. Fatalities and hours worked share their own scales too. No JavaScript - the whole tool is CSS.
What is real vs. illustrative
Every figure here is an illustrative stand-in shaped to the real MSHA structure - injury rate, span fatalities, and annual hours worked per state. The live swap joins Accidents (numerator) to MinesProdQuarterly (hours) on MINE_ID and attaches the state from Mines; see HANDOFF.md. No number here is presented as real.
