Rounded values when pulling through NM_31_1 #30

Hi, I'm pulling through some mid-year population estimates using this:

mid_year_pop_estimates_raw <- nomis_get_data("NM_31_1", geography = "TYPE431", date = 2017)

The values in the OBS_VALUE column are rounded to the nearest 00 (rounded) when compared to the raw data downloaded via nomis. I've only had this issue with NM_31_1 so far, and it appears to be the case for others years I've pulled through (2018 and 2019)

Many thanks, Lydia

The API itself appears to round these result values. I will check to see if it rounds the results in other formats.
