Where to live? near home or work?

Primary LanguagePython

========================

What is how?


how

a little Flask pet project to calculate if it's more cost effective to live near work or live farther away and commute.

Requirements

Data

  • Median rent data from Quandl
  • Gas prices from mapquest. mapquest doesn't have an API for gas prices, so I did make direct API calls to its undocumented API.

Features

  • options of rent or own
  • cost of owning a car or commuting at the current cost of public transportation
  • input address or zipcode or just click on map location
  • size of home / number of b&b
