get_tract_demographics

The data comes from the American Community Survey (ACS). The variables are total population
and median household income.

Easily create color-coded (choropleth) maps in R. No knowledge of
cartography or shapefiles needed; go directly from your geographically
identified data to a highly customizable map with a single line of code!
Supported geographies: U.S. states, counties, and census tracts, world
countries and sub-country regions (e.g., provinces, prefectures, etc.).
One of the suggested packages, rnaturalearthhires, is not available on CRAN
owing to its larger filesize (40MB). It can be installed from GitHub using
remotes::install_github("https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearthhires").
This package contains higher resolution sub-country maps and is only needed
for the choropleth_admin1() function.
