Using hvplot with geopandas is as simple as loading a geopandas dataframe and calling hvplot on it with geo=True.

import geodatasets
import geopandas as gpd

chicago = gpd.read_file(geodatasets.get_path("geoda.chicago_commpop"))
chicago.sample(3)
Downloading file 'chicago_commpop.zip' from 'https://geodacenter.github.io/data-and-lab//data/chicago_commpop.zip' to '/home/runner/.cache/geodatasets'.

chicago.hvplot(geo=True)

Control the color of the elements using the c option.

chicago.hvplot.polygons(geo=True, c='POP2010', hover_cols='all')

You can even color by another series, such as population density:

chicago.hvplot.polygons(
    geo=True,
    c=chicago.POP2010/chicago.to_crs('EPSG:32616').area,
    clabel='pop density',
)
