RcensusPkg: Easily Access US Census Bureau Survey and Geographic Data
The key function 'get_vintage_data()' returns a dataframe and is the window into the Census Bureau API requiring just a dataset name, vintage(year), and vector of variable names for survey estimates/percentages. Other functions assist in searching for available datasets, geographies, group/variable concepts of interest. Also provided are functions to access and layer (via standard piping) displayable geometries for the US, states, counties, blocks/tracts, roads, landmarks, places, and bodies of water. Joining survey data with many of the geometry functions is built-in to produce choropleth maps.
