prop.cond: Estimate proportion of a population in a subset for ACS PUMS...

In davidthaler/PUMSutils: Computes Point Estimates and Standard Errors on the ACS PUMS Data

Description

Compute the proportion of a population in a subset defined by a list of conditions. The conditions are combined with a logical-and. The conditions should be bare expressions, not strings. This function uses rlang::quos.

Usage

prop.cond(x, ..., wt.rep.num = NULL)

Arguments

x	data.frame or similar with data filtered to relevant rows.
...	a list of conditions that define the subset, as bare expressions, not as strings
wt.rep.num	the weight replicate number, if a replicate weight

Value

point estimate of the proportion of population in subset

Examples

# Fraction of Washington State households that pay cash rent
prop.cond(wa.house16, TEN==3)

# Fraction of Washington State renter households that have only 1 person.
prop.cond(wa.house16, TEN==3, NP==1)

# Fraction of Washington State households that are rent-burdened renters
# A household is rent-burdened if it pays more than 30% of its income in rent.
# GRNTP is monthly gross rent, HINCP is annual household income
prop.cond(wa.house16, 12 * GRNTP > 0.3 * HINCP)
