Hi, all,
I'm having a new (for me) problem with tidycensus. When I attempt to pull data
at the zcta level using get_acs, I get "GEOMETRYCOLLECTION EMPTY" in the
geometry column. It does not happen when I pull data at the census tract level.
This is also a fairly new problem, because I was using old code that I wrote
and successfully generated maps from in the past. Any thoughts? Here are some
code snippets that you can run to see what I am talking about:
zcta_test<-get_acs(geography="zcta",
variables=(c(all_pop = "B03002_001",
white_pop = "B03002_003",
black_pop = "B03002_004",
latin_pop = "B03002_012")),
geometry=T, cache=T )
ct_test<-get_acs(geography="tract", state="51",
variables=(c(all_pop = "B03002_001",
white_pop = "B03002_003",
black_pop = "B03002_004",
latin_pop = "B03002_012")),
geometry=T, cache=T )
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
