Download and use US Census Bureau TIGER/Line Shapefiles and other data resources in Python
Project description
pygris
pygris is a Python package to help users access US Census Bureau TIGER/Line and cartographic boundary shapefiles and load them into Python as GeoDataFrames. The goal of the package is to make it simple to access US Census geographic data; data can be acquired with a single function for a given geography (e.g. tracts() for Census tracts) along with a few options.
The package is a general port of the R tigris package with a few modifications. The framework of and philosophy behind the tigris package is covered in Chapter 5 of my book, Analyzing US Census Data: Methods, Maps and Models in R.
Install pygris from PyPI with the following command:
pip install pygris
# For optional dependencies to support interactive examples in the documentation:
# pip install pygris[explore]
Or via conda-forge with:
conda install pygris
# For optional dependencies to support interactive examples in the documentation:
# conda install "pygris[explore]"
Alternatively, install the development version from GitHub:
