Download geographic shapes from the United States Census Bureau TIGER/Line Shapefiles <https://www.census.gov/geographies/mapping-files/time-series/geo/tiger-line-file.html>. Functions support downloading and reading in geographic boundary data. All downloads can be set up with a cache to avoid multiple downloads. Data is available back to 2000 for most geographies.
