Figure.

The figure is an interactive map of New York State, divided into counties, with locations of existing (n = 39) and potential (n = 715) Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) sites marked in each of the 62 counties. Counties are rendered in 3 different shades to indicate their prediabetes risk-factor score: lower risk (z-score, <0.13); at risk (z-score, 0.13–1.85); and highest risk (z-score, z>1.86). Thirty-minute drive-time buffers are drawn around the 39 existing sites, showing that the population of several of the counties at highest risk are located outside the drive-time buffer. The map shows that the 39 existing DPP sites are located primarily in metropolitan areas and that every county has at least 1 potential DPP site. The map includes a scale of miles with 1 inch equivalent to 60 miles.
