Add text on top of a facet dodged barplot using ggplot2

Question

I'd like to plot a dodged barplot for two different years and put the revenue numbers on top of the bar accordingly. After trying quite some suggestion I found over here, I still can't quite get what I want (all the numbers were displayed in the middle of the middle bars/columns instead of spreading equally). Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks!

My latest attempt

# Disable scientific notation
options("scipen" = 100, "digits" = 1)

censusData <- structure(list(Year = c(2012L, 2007L, 2012L, 2007L, 2012L, 2007L,

# Add text on top of the bar
qbarplot_yr_1 + 
  geom_text(data = censusData,

Answer 1

You need to dodge the text values as well. Try

qbarplot_yr_1 + geom_text(data = censusData,
         aes(x = County, group=variable, y = value + 150, 
         label = format(value, nsmall = 0, digits=1, scientific = FALSE)), 
         color="blue", position=position_dodge(.9), hjust=.5)

We also need the group= so it knows which values to dodge on.
