Overview
Context of the Analyzing US Census Data in Python course at Data Camp
Data scientists in diverse fields, from marketing to public health to civic hacking, need to work with demographic and socioeconomic data.
Government census agencies offer richly detailed, high-quality datasets, but the number of variables and intricacies of administrative geographies (what is a Census tract anyway?) can make approaching this goldmine a daunting process.
You will use Python to request this data using the Census API for large and small geographies. You will manipulate the data using pandas, and create derived data such as a measure of segregation. You will also get a taste of the mapping capabilities of geopandas.
