I really like the overall look and feel of the map. Specifically I really like the colors and how they all interact...very nice.

When it comes to the labels, I think it is just a case off too much packed into too small a space. For a map this size, I think fewer labels would improve the overall map. If you were to make a larger map you could accomodate more labels, but as is I think the map is just too small for that many labels.
