Moving conversation from #46 here:

sglyon: @cc7768 I vote we avoid hard coding any fips codes.

Perhaps we could use the us package to get them for us?

There are places that something has to be hard coded, right?

The us package has not added county support (last time I checked) -- It's been an open PR for awhile. Maybe we:

  1. Get state fips codes from the us package
  2. Hard code the county name rather than the fips code which is easier to verify and could be used to merge using our SQL database?

Thoughts?
