States that are part of the Bible Belt, whose values are shown as zero and appear with an Overlay pattern, are those that do not have their own minimum wage law and, therefore, use the federal minimum wage. Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa and other overseas colonies do not appear on the map and therefore are not taken into account.
