Data analysis of Little Free Libraries

Data was scraped from the Little Free Library website on April 17, 2023.

Prerequisites

Look at analysis.Rmd for main code. Download the GADM data as a Geopackage from here. Make sure to place it in the project directory in order to reproduce my results in R.

Required R libraries:

tidyverse
readr
sf
spData
tidycensus

You will also need a Census API key which you can get from here. I've already retrieved population data by state and stored it in census_pop_data.csv.
