Within your selected jurisdiction of interest, select to change the area (Capital city, Rest of State/ Territory or State) in the graph software interface. Select another indicator either by re-browsing from the contents list below; or by scrolling to a new 'Topic', and then 'Indicator', within the graph interface.
