cbcounty_df: County border assignments.

Description Usage Format Source

Description

A dataset of border counties and their cross-border county cluster assignments under various mappings. See descriptions for sbscp_df, bscp_df, cpcp_df, and mxcp_df for metadata on mappings. After choosing a mapping, analysts should remove counties with null cluster assignments (to prevent null values mapping into factors) and clusters with only one distinct county or state.
