What's the medium sized red dot just north of LA? I live around there and it makes sense but there's a lot of small-ish towns around here and I don't know what it represents. What population patterns do these dots represent? I'm guessing the red dot is either Visalia, Tulare County, San Joaquin Valley in general, or Fresno.

The dots are counties - the largest red one above LA is Kern county - Tulare county is the smaller red dot above it to the right

This is a clearer version of that map. The other two much smaller red dots above LA are Kings and Inyo counties - this map is based on 2016 presidential results, as Inyo went blue in 2020 (by only 14 votes though)
