Analyzing US Census Data: Methods, Maps, and Models in R: Chapman &Hall/CRC The R Series
Autor Kyle Walkeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 feb 2023
Chapters in this book cover the following key topics:
• Rapidly acquiring data from the decennial US Census and American Community Survey using R, then analyzing these datasets using tidyverse tools;
• Visualizing US Census data with a wide range of methods including charts in ggplot2 as well as both static and interactive maps;
• Using R as a geographic information system (GIS) to manage, analyze, and model spatial demographic data from the US Census;
• Working with and modeling individual-level microdata from the American Community Survey’s PUMS datasets;
• Applying these tools and workflows to the analysis of historical Census data, other US government datasets, and international Census data from countries like Canada, Brazil, Kenya, and Mexico.

Recenzii
"This book is destined to become the go-to text for people wanting to use R for the analysis of US Census data. I think this is a strong, clear, and comprehensive introduction to the tidycensus package and the tidyverse. I have been using tidycensus and Walker’s tigris package probably since he initially contributed them to the community of R users years ago. Although I use the packages regularly for teaching and research, I still learned quite a bit about their functionality in the chapters I reviewed. Thus, I think it will be a useful text for both novices and experienced R users. I could see this book being used in a variety of social science courses relating to research methodology, data visualization, and cartography."

"Walker [...] is clearly familiar with the material and how to use R to the best advantage for mapping and modeling. Indeed, he has written the code for some of the many R packages covered in this title. In this book, he recommends which R package is most suitable for each application and then provides code examples to highlight how to carry out a simple version of each task with the package. Some of the specific scenarios include the creation of data visualizations using ggplot2 or tmap, a discussion of handling margins of error with the American Community Survey data using tidycensus, and historical census data analysis and mapping using ipumsr. The code samples are suitable for users who are quite familiar with R or similar GIS software. This title would function well as a reference or a textbook for graduate-level students or faculty.
