Datacommons Client

Need census data, economic indicators, or public health statistics? This wraps the Data Commons Python API, giving you programmatic access to aggregated public datasets from government agencies and international organizations. The three endpoint pattern is clean: resolve entity names to IDs, explore the knowledge graph for available variables, then query the actual statistical observations. Works well with Pandas for analysis. The entity expression syntax for hierarchical queries (like all counties in a state at once) is genuinely useful. You'll need an API key for the public instance, but the statistical variable naming is intuitive enough once you see a few examples.
