  start_year = 2011,
  end_year = 2018,
  year = NA
)

Examples

zips <- c("94035","94039","94040","94041","94042","94043")

# Get the median age per race group in the specified ZIP codes
count_household_income_by_race(zips)

# Get the median age per race group from 2012 to 2015
count_household_income_by_race(zips, start_year=2012, end_year=2015)

# Get the median age per race group in 2012
count_household_income_by_race(zips, year=2012)

# Get the median age per race group in the state of California
count_household_income_by_race(c("California")) # State name
