With home prices in Vancouver at record highs over recent years, many are concerned about housing affordability, especially the gap between property values and the income of people currently living in Vancouver. If we can compare property values of homes in different neighbourhoods of Vancouver and the socio-economic background of people who reside in those areas, we can identify neighbourhoods where the affordability gap is particularly severe. To do this, we propose building a data visualization application that allows city lawmakers to visually explore property value and socio-economic data geographically mapped to Vancouver neighbourhoods. Our app will show the distribution of property values across the city and allow users to filter on a specific neighbourhood in order to compare property values with various socio-economic statistics for that neighbourhood.
