A new version of tigris, your #rstats package for working with U.S. Census Bureau geographic datasets, is up on CRAN! The main updates are: 🗺 2022 defaults for all TIGER and CB shapefiles; 🗺 Support for the 118th Congress in `congressional_districts()` Download with `install.packages("tigris")` today! If you've never used the package before: tigris gets you access to all your favorite US Census Bureau geographic datasets (counties, Census tracts, roads, water areas, and much more) in a single line of R code. To learn how to use the package, read Chapter 5 of my book Analyzing US Census Data: https://lnkd.in/gq79tebz
