xwalk_00_10: Crosswalk tracts from 2000 to 2010 boundaries

In mnissen1/censusCrosswalk: Crosswalk ACS/Census data

Description

This function takes ACS/Census data with 2000 tract boundaries, and loads in weights from the LTBD (https://s4.ad.brown.edu/projects/diversity/Researcher/LTBDDload/DataList.aspx). It assumes that you want all variables to be crosswalked, and includes a filter to only choose numeric type variables. If you want to only crosswalk specific variables, specify this in the vars argument (must be numeric). It outputs the original data crosswalked to 2010 boundaries.

Usage

xwalk_00_10(census_data, tractID, vars = names(census_data))

Arguments

census_data	An R table containing ACS/Census data w/ 2000 boundaries
tractID	Variable name that contains the tract ID
vars	Census/ACS variables to crosswalk. Defaults to all numeric variables, but can be adjusted. Custom variables must be a single string or a list of strings.

Value

Crosswalked selected ACS/Census data (2010 boundaries, defaults to all numeric data)
