Usage

from pycensuskr import CensusKR
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import geopandas as gpd

# Create a CensusData instance
census = CensusKR()

# load specific year data
data_2020 = census.load_data(year = 2020)
print(data_2020)

# load district boundaries for a specific year
districts_2020 = census.load_districts(year = 2020)
districts_2020["adm2_re"] = districts_2020["adm2_code"].astype(str).str.slice(0,4)
# aggregate geometries by adm2_re
districts_2020 = districts_2020.dissolve(by="adm2_re", as_index=False)
districts_2020["adm2_code"] = districts_2020["adm2_re"] + "0"
districts_2020["adm2_code"] = districts_2020["adm2_code"].astype(int)

# cleaned data with variable types
df_tax_2020 = census.anycensus(year = 2020, type = "tax", aggregator = "sum")

districts_tax_2020 = districts_2020.merge(df_tax_2020, on="adm2_code")
print(districts_tax_2020)

districts_tax_2020.plot("income_labor_mil")
plt.show()

Notes on data updates

Our data cleaning and processing pipeline is based on the original R package tidycensuskr. We periodically synchronize the bundled datasets used in this package with those in R tidycensuskr and tidycensussfkr to ensure accuracy and relevance. Please refer to the tidycensuskr webpage for details on the latest data updates and changes.
