arguments to be passed to internal function load_tiger, which is not exported. See Additional Arguments.
the data year; defaults to 2024
Additional arguments that can be passed in ... are:
class Desired class of return object: "sf" (the default) or "sp". sp classes should be considered deprecated as of tigris version 2.0, but legacy support is still available.
progress_bar If set to FALSE, do not display download progress bar (helpful for R Markdown documents). Defaults to TRUE.
keep_zipped_shapefile If set to TRUE, do not delete zipped shapefile (stored in temporary directory or TIGRIS_CACHE_DIR
depending on the configuration of global option "tigris_use_cache"). Defaults to FALSE.
refresh Whether to re-download cached shapefiles (TRUE or FALSE) . The default is either FALSE or the value of global
option "tigris_refresh" if it is set. Specifying this argument will override the behavior set in "tigris_refresh" global option.
filter_by Geometry used to filter the output returned by the function. Can be an sf object, an object of class bbox, or a length-4 vector of format c(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax) that can be converted to a bbox. Geometries that intersect the input to filter_by will be returned.
protocol Character string specifying the protocol to use for downloading files. Options are "ftp" or "http" (default). If "ftp", the URL will be modified to use FTP instead of HTTPS.
timeout Integer specifying the timeout in seconds for download operations if protocol is "ftp". Defaults to 1800 (30 minutes) to handle large files.
