format.estimate

Format an estimate for pretty printing

Extracting desired data using the proper Census variable names can
be time-consuming. This package takes the pain out of that process by
providing functions to quickly locate variables and download labeled tables
from the Census APIs (<https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets.html>).
