Unravel the potential of tax data like never before – whether you're an expert or just starting out, TaxFilingFusion makes IRS data accessible and user-friendly for all.Call for ContributionsIt provides:sophisticated functionsa powerful connection between tax filing data and the American geographyan API with a backend of BigQuery to allow user manipulation of dataDetailed Package InfoThis Python package provides access to individual income tax statistics for various zip codes using data obtained from the IRS. The data spans the years between 2015 and 2020, and each year's data may have a different format as some attributes may be dropped in certain years, while new attributes may be added.
The data is ingested into Google BigQuery, where all individual year tables are combined into a single comprehensive table. To enrich the ZipCode data and provide more detailed information, the package utilizes crosswalk files from HUD USPS, which establish links between ZIP codes, state FIPS codes, county FIPS codes, and city FIPS codes. This enriched data allows users to obtain additional details about each ZIP code, such as county, state, region, and other associated information.
Several views, table query functions, and single-valued functions are implemented to support various data needs for the API. These functions are designed to expose the combined and enriched data for public access. By leveraging these APIs, we have created a beautiful and easy-to-use PyPI package that allows the public to interact with and analyze the IRS individual income tax statistics for different ZIP codes, enriched with valuable geographic information.Call for ContributionsThe TaxFilingFusion project welcomes everyone's passions, thoughts, ideas, and contributions.Small improvements or fixes are greatly appreciated.
If you have any questions, please email:vedrathi10@gmail.comOur GitHub repository may be small and much simpler than what you would expect of a full-fledged package like NumPy,
but our goal is to continue adding new features to make this data even more accessible for users.
