Summary and challenges

By Boston neighborhood we have successfully pulled together demographic data in the following categories:

• Age
• Housing Tenure
• Household Income
• Poverty Rate
• Educational Attainment/School Enrollment

For our 17 identified neighborhoods we have created one master data frame including over 70 features granting us flexibility for model experimentation.

Given that the demographics data is at an aggregated neighborhood level (rather than by census tract) further discussion is needed around model implementation.
