[R] Any tools for working with US 2000 census data? (Zembower, Kevin)
Hi Kevin, Not an R-specific solution, but by far the easiest way to extract data from the 2000 census is to use American FactFinder. Go to the main page: http://factfinder.census.gov/home/saff/main.html?_lang=en Hover over Data Sets, click Decennial Census. Select the file you want (SF-2 for you), then click Detailed Tables. Click on the Geo Within Geo tab. This will let you select all the units within another unit, which seems like what you want, plus the variables desired. Ciao, Ari [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
