ses-ine's Introduction

Area-Level SES Indicators from INE

Data

NOTE: The folder data/ is not tracked by git due to the file size limit of GitHub.

The original data is available at INE's website:

https://www.ine.es/experimental/atlas/exp_atlas_tab.htm

I downloaded the ZIP files for:

Indicadores de renta media y mediana
Índice de Gini y Distribución de la renta P80/P20

Each folder has several files with the data in different formats and shapes. I used the CSV called csv_bdsc.csv from each folder and named them, respectively:

I also downloaded the map of Spain by districts (2018) from INE's site:

https://www.ine.es/ss/Satellite?L=es_ES&c=Page&cid=1259952026632&p=1259952026632&pagename=ProductosYServicios%2FPYSLayout

I placed the corresponding SHAPE files in data/maps/ine/.

I use this map to subset the districts in Catalonia and link the SES indicators with the corresponding district polygons.

Output

See ses-ine.R for details on the data cleaning and wrangling.
