Suggest a Census geography level for a state

Gives a practical starting point for build_local_geography() and add_county_muni(). It is a recommendation, not a legal definition of local government. For production municipal joins, an official state/local boundary layer is still the strongest source.

Usage

suggest_geography_level(state)

Arguments

state

Two-letter state abbreviation.

Value

A one-row tibble with the recommended Census geography and note.

Examples

suggest_geography_level("NJ")
