If it becomes very long then the data you lose to the scrollbar is the least relevant.

Start with it scrolled to the right?

Then don't put long data in a horizontal scrollbar. It's the worst possible UX ever.

You can switch to City view and State view... those have a lot more than 8 data sources. This is pretty good UX if you're paying any attention at all.
