The tigerweb Module
tigerweb.py
- Code for interacting with the Census TIGERWEb API, query area and download shape
files.
- get_area(geometry, sq_mi=True)[source]
Create a data frame of Census GEOIDs and Area. Due to the Tigerweb API’s limiting of the number of features per query to 100,000, block groups aren’t currently supported through this wrapper.
