Collected from the real estate pages of the Boston Globe during 1990.
These homes sold in the Boston, MA area.
Notes
Typically, it is very easy to obtain data on selling prices and
characteristics of homes, using publicly available databases. It is
interesting to match the information on houses with other
information – such as local crime rates, quality of the local schools,
pollution levels, and so on – and estimate the effects of such variables
on housing prices.
