I am making a sort of population pyramid using ggplot (plotrix doesn't allow me to do fancy labels etc), then I start with a geom_bar with labels and later I flip the coordinates. Sadly, labels almost cannot being seeing. I would like to move those labels near to the "y- axis" in the middle, that now is showing the age groups.
Data is here: d <- data.frame(age.grp2 = c("1-10", "11-20", "21-30", "31-40", "41-50", "1-10", "11-20", "21-30", "31-40", "41-50"),
sex = c("Female","Female","Female","Female","Female","Male","Male","Male","Male","Male" ),
n.enroll = c(288,500,400,300,200,300,460,300,200,300),
proportion = c(17.1,29.6,23.7,17.8,11.8,51,47.9,42.9,40,60),
proportion2 = c(-17.1,-29.6,-23.7,-17.8,-11.8,51,47.9,42.9,40,60))
My code is this one: ggplot(d, aes(x = age.grp2, y = proportion2, fill = sex)) +
geom_bar(position = position_dodge(width=1), stat='identity') +
geom_label(aes(label = paste(n.enroll," (",proportion,"%)", sep=""), group = factor(sex)),
fill="white", colour = "black",
position= position_dodge(width=1),
size = 3) +
scale_fill_manual(values=c("#BFD5E3", "grey")) +
facet_share(~sex, dir = "h", scales = "free", reverse_num = TRUE) +
coord_flip() +
theme(panel.grid.major = element_blank(),
panel.grid.minor = element_blank(),
#panel.border = element_blank(),
panel.background = element_blank(),
legend.position = "none",
#axis.line.x = element_line(color = "black"),
axis.ticks.y = element_blank(),
axis.text.x = element_text(colour = "black", size = 8, face = "bold", angle=0, hjust=0.5),
axis.text.y = element_text(colour = "black", size = 8, face = "bold"),
axis.title.x = element_text(size = 14, face="bold", margin = margin(t = 30, r = 20, b = 10, l = 20)),
plot.margin = unit(c(1,1,1,1),"cm")) +
labs(y = "Enrollment percentage within sex",x="")
I am attaching also the plot, where we can see in females the label in the age group 11-20 is cut. I would like to have all labels near to the age group labels, within each bar: female labels moved to the right and male labels move it to the left. Also, I would like to have each x-axis extended to 100% or at least in same range, in females goes up to 30% and in males goes up to 60%. Thanks for all the comments
