US Health Expenditure vs US Urban Population
US Health Expenditure and US Urban Population correlate at r = +0.56 over 24 years (2000–2023), p = 0.0048. With the time trend removed, r = +0.57. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = 0.0048) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.57). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
