Usage

states_shapefile

Format

An object of class sf (inherits from data.frame) with 56 rows and 15 columns.

Details

This is used by state_from_latlon() to find which state is associated with each point that the user wants to analyze. That is needed to report indicators in the form of State-specific percentiles (e.g., a score that is at the 80th percentile within Texas). It is created by the package via a script at EJAM/data-raw/datacreate_states_shapefile.R which downloads the data from Census Bureau.
