this is outstanding and very useful in healthcare and rural population outcome analysis. wondering if you could produce this for Maryland.

Glad you liked it! Made this for Maryland! https://i.imgur.com/8kYzyzU.png

Some caveats here are that my approach only references distances to hospital within the state, so it won't count hospitals that may be near the border but in another state. I hope to expand this to a country-wide analysis once I can optimize it a bit more.

The differences are stark in these two maps, since you used the same color scale.

BTW you can see some of the cross-border anomalies here, where locations in VA have a shorter time indicated on the MD map than the VA one.

Any chance you could do this for Montana? I know a rural healthcare worker that would be really into that.
