The cincy package contains simple feature geographic polygon files (sf objects) that define Cincinnati Neighborhood, Tract, County, and ZIP Code Geographies.

Installing

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("geomarker-io/cincy")

Data

Data objects are data.frames of class sf and are named by geography, source, and optionally vintage:

name geography source vintage
zcta_tigris_2020 zcta tigris 2020
zcta_tigris_2010 zcta tigris 2010
zcta_tigris_2000 zcta tigris 2000
tract_tigris_2020 tract tigris 2020
tract_tigris_2010 tract tigris 2010
tract_tigris_2000 tract tigris 2000
neigh_sna neigh sna
neigh_cchmc_2020 neigh cchmc 2020
neigh_cchmc_2010 neigh cchmc 2010
neigh_ccc neigh ccc
districts_tigris_2013 districts tigris 2013
districts_tigris_2011 districts tigris 2011
county_swoh_2010 county swoh 2010
county_hlthvoh_2010 county hlthvoh 2010
county_hlthv_2010 county hlthv 2010
county_8cc_2010 county 8cc 2010
county_7cc_2010 county 7cc 2010
blockgroup_tigris_2020 blockgroup tigris 2020
blockgroup_tigris_2010 blockgroup tigris 2010
blockgroup_tigris_2000 blockgroup tigris 2000

Use autocomplete functionality at the R prompt (e.g., typing cincy:: and pressing TAB twice) to find the needed sf object, narrowing first based on geography (tract, zcta, neigh, county), then by source, and then optionally by vintage.

Consult the help file for any object for more information on the data within it:

?cincy::neigh_ccc

Or explore the data documentation online at https://geomarker.io/cincy/reference

Examples

Data are returned as simple features objects. For example, to get Cincinnati neighborhoods, as defined by the most recent version of community council boundaries from CAGIS:
