POPULATION

Loads IBGE information on estimated population (2001-2006, 2008-2009, 2011-2021) or population (2007 and 2010) data. Data is available at country, state and municipality level and from 2001 to 2021.


Options:

  1. dataset: "population"

  2. raw_data: there are two options:

  3. geo_level: "country", "state", or "municipality"

  4. time_period: picks the years for which the data will be downloaded

  5. language: you can choose between Portuguese ("pt") and English ("eng")


Examples:

# download treated population data at the state level for 2010 to 2012
data <- load_population(
  raw_data = FALSE,
  geo_level = "state",
  time_period = 2010:2012
)
