This package is based on choroplethr and can be used to easily create maps of Mexico at both the state and municipio levels. It also includes functions to create interactive maps using the leaflet package, map INEGI data from its API, and format strings so they match the INEGI state and municipio codes. Be sure to visit the official website.
For the moment this package is only available from github. For the development version:
if (!require(devtools)) {
install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_github('diegovalle/mxmaps')
library(mxmaps)
data("df_mxstate_2020")
df_mxstate_2020$value <- df_mxstate_2020$pop
mxstate_choropleth(df_mxstate_2020,
title = "Total population, by state")
##Data
The data.frame that you provide to the plotting functions must have one
column named “region” and one column named “value”. The entries for
“region” must match the INEGI codes for states (“01”, “02”, etc) and
municipios (“01001”, “01002”, etc) either as a string with or without a
leading “0” or as numerics. The functions str_mxstate
and
str_mxmunicipio
are provided to easily format codes to the INEGI
specification. Also, two example data.frames, df_mxstate_2020
and
df_mxmunicipio_2020
, are provided with demographic variables from the
2020 census.

Here’s another example showing Mexican municipios (similar to counties):
data("df_mxmunicipio_2020")
df_mxmunicipio_2020$value <- df_mxmunicipio_2020$indigenous_language / df_mxmunicipio_2020$pop
mxmunicipio_choropleth(df_mxmunicipio_2020, num_colors = 1,
title = "Percentage of the population that speaks\nan indigenous language")
