At the end of 2023, we publicly launched Voronoi, our free new data discovery app!
The initial response from both users and creators has been incredible. We now have millions of in-app views, and there are already more than 1,500 interesting visualizations to discover, many of which will never be published on Visual Capitalist.
For that reason, we’ve chosen to highlight some of the most popular visualizations and creators from June in this roundup. To see them and many others, make sure to download the app!
Let’s take a look at a popular creator worth highlighting, a top “Editor’s Pick” of the month, and also the most popular and most commented on visuals.
POPULAR CREATOR
Utility
Visual Capitalist isn’t the only creator on the Voronoi app.
Instead, it features incredible data-driven charts and stories from many of the world’s best creators, like Utility.
Utility has been one of the most followed and popular creators in the last two months, covering a wide range of topics like:
- Changes in millionaire populations over the last decade, by country
- Poll results on if U.S. consumers will buy Chinese cars
- The fast food brands that consumers see as the “fanciest”
- How many people in the U.S. live in walkable neighborhoods
Make sure to follow Utility on Voronoi today to see many charts, maps, and visualizations on a wide range of exciting topics.

Mapped: The Income Needed to be Comfortable, by U.S. State
How much money does one person need to take home each year, to feel “comfortable” financially?
This map from Visual Capitalist looks at numbers by U.S. state, taking into account household expenses, discretionary spending, saving and investing, and other factors.
The state with the highest income needed to live comfortably is Massachusetts ($116k/year), while West Virginia was the cheapest ($79k/year). There are many little surprises in the data, however, that make this one interesting.

EDITOR’S PICK
Internet Satellite Companies Compared
One of the recent picks in our Editor’s Pick feed on the app is from creator Made Visual, and it shows constellations of satellites providing internet access.
This visual really showcases SpaceX’s head start in the satellite internet business with Starlink. The company has close to 6,000 satellites, which means they make up at least half of all satellites orbiting Earth—an impressive feat for just one company.

Mapped: The 10 Hottest and Coldest Countries
With the summer heating up, we all know what it’s like when it’s so hot that things get uncomfortable.
Well, what if the weather were that toasty all the time? The most discussed graphic this month highlights the countries with the highest (and lowest) average temperatures.
This visualization by Visual Capitalist kicked off a debate on whether certain countries were missed in the rankings, however users were quick to point out that these are average temperatures only, and not local extremes.
For example, although the U.S. has some sweltering cities, it also has some states that get very cold especially during the winter, that bring the overall average down.
