Source: R/state_from_latlon.R
state_from_fips_bybg.Rd

Get the State abbreviations of ALL blockgroups WITHIN the input FIPS

Usage

state_from_fips_bybg(fips, uniqueonly = FALSE)

Arguments

fips

Census FIPS codes vector, numeric or char, 2-digit, 5-digit, etc. OK

uniqueonly

If set to TRUE, returns only unique results. This parameter is here mostly to remind user that default is not uniques only.

Value

vector of 2-character state abbreviations like CA,CA,CA,MD,MD,TX

Details

Unlike fips2state_abbrev(), this returns a vector of 2-letter State abbreviations that is one per blockgroup that matches the input FIPS, not necessarily a vector as long as the input vector of FIPS codes!, and not just a short list of unique states!
