To interpret the Human Development Index (HDI) of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean accurately, the most relevant factor to consider is:
**Canada and the U.S. have significantly higher scores than the rest of the countries.**
This is important because the high HDI scores of Canada and the United States can skew the average HDI for the entire region, masking the lower HDI of other countries, particularly in Central America and the Caribbean. Additionally, the presence of countries with much lower HDIs (like Haiti and Mexico) can also impact the regional average, but the contrast in scores between Canada and the U.S. compared to other countries in the region is a significant factor in understanding the HDI distribution.
