My choropleth map labels don't show up.

On Datawrapper choropleth maps, you can show map labels in step 3: Visualize – either places (e.g. cities) or data from a column (here's a tutorial). But some map labels you want to see on your map might not show up.

That's because Datawrapper, by default, makes sure they don't overlap. In the Map labels settings, you'll find the option to turn off Prevent label overlapping to make sure that all map labels show up:

(It might be an undecipherable mess, though, especially on mobile.)

It can also be helpful to set the minimum zoom for labels to something else than the default "1". When readers first see your embedded map, it will always be on zoom level 1. If you make a map zoomable, they then have the option to increase the zoom level and have a detailed look at certain states or countries. Setting the minimum zoom higher means that your readers will first need to zoom in to be able to see your map labels:
