Predicting Housing Prices in Cook County



Introduction

In this, you will specify and fit a linear model to a few features of the housing data to predict housing prices. Next, we will analyze the error of the model and brainstorm ways to improve the model’s performance. Finally, we’ll delve deeper into the implications of predictive modeling within the Cook County Assessor’s Office (CCAO) case study, especially because statistical modeling is how the CCAO valuates properties. Given the history of racial discrimination in housing policy and property taxation in Cook County, consider the impacts of your modeling results as you work through this assignment - and think about what fairness might mean to property owners in Cook County. After this homework, you should be comfortable with: - Implementing a data processing pipeline using pandas - Using scikit-learn to build and fit linear models

X_train_m1, y_train_m1 = process_data_gm(train_m1, m1_pipelines, 'Log Sale Price')
X_test_m1, y_test_m1 = process_data_gm(test_m1, m1_pipelines, 'Log Sale Price')


Linear Model


#creating linear model
from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression
reg = LinearRegression()

Fit Into Model

reg.fit(x_train_m1, y_train_m1)

Find the score

reg.score(x_test_m1, y_test_m1)
