What a bubble chart is.
A bubble chart is a scatter plot with a third measure represented by the size of each circle. The horizontal position compares one variable, the vertical position compares another, and bubble area adds scale such as revenue, volume or population.
It works best for a modest number of labeled items. Choose meaningful axes, state what bubble size represents and avoid treating a larger circle as a precise measurement when a table would be clearer.

Common questions
What is a bubble chart used for?
A bubble chart compares three dimensions of data: two numerical variables on the axes and a third variable through bubble size.
How is a bubble chart different from a scatter plot?
Both position items with two variables. A bubble chart also varies the size of each marker to represent a third measure.
What should bubble size represent?
Use one additive quantity, such as sales, volume, population or budget. State the measure in the title or legend so readers know what a larger bubble means.
When should I avoid a bubble chart?
Use another chart when there are many overlapping items, when exact values matter most, or when the third measure is not comparable across the items.
