Description
In this workshop, we provide an overview of conducting U.S. Census data analysis and visualization in R. First, we’ll cover the basic concepts of U.S. Census Data. Then, we’ll demonstrate how to call the census data API directly from R by using the R tidycensus package.
Prerequisites: D-Lab’s R Fundamentals or equivalent knowledge; previous experience with base R is assumed.
Workshop Materials: https://github.com/dlab-berkeley/R-Census-Data
Software Requirements: Installation Instructions for R and RStudio
Is RStudio not working on your laptop? Attend the workshop anyway, we can provide you with a cloud-based solution until you figure out the problems with your local installation.
