Description

This paper examines the relationship between housing prices and various demographic factors. In particular, the effect of several variables on the median price of houses in the greater Boston area was studied. The study uses independent variables such as crime rate, property tax rate, and house age. Stepwise regression analysis was used to determine which variables were most significant in predicting median house price. Variables such as crime rate, average number of rooms, and nitric oxide concentration were found to be statistically significant.
