geometry |
if FALSE (the default), return a regular tibble of ACS data. if TRUE, uses the tigris package to return an sf tibble with simple feature geometry in the 'geometry' column. |
keep_geo_vars |
if TRUE, keeps all the variables from the Census shapefile obtained by tigris. Defaults to FALSE. |
shift_geo |
(deprecated) if TRUE, returns geometry with Alaska and Hawaii shifted for thematic
