A R Program to do some spatial statistics 😑

Replicability Statement

I anticipate full capability of future scholars replicating my analysis using the data and my codes

The file I downloaded comes from the Office of Planning & Community Development, the American Fact Finder American Community Survey, 5-Year Estimate for 2010-2014, and the Seattle Police Department 911 Incident Response of the Public Safety Section of the [Seattle Open Data Center website] (https://data.seattle.gov/browse?category=Public+Safety). Based on my observations, you may make the same replication using the data from the Chicago, Houston, Atlanta and by golly OK City, Oklahoma! 😉 (among many others).

Note: You do need to make some pre-sorting and pre-cleaning (time consuming warning: 20 hours of labor expected) 💔 directly on the data you download from the ACS (they are very messy). After I am able to place my paper in ArXiv, I will also post one of my post-sorted data, as an example of how much difference is there before versus after, for your information.
