Proportion of room price to lowest wage

Housing Anywhere

This data set presents average prices by housing type based on the listings available on the international housing website, Housing Anywhere. There are again pros and cons to this data set. The data does not involve the lowest range of housing, including buildings in bad conditions and social housing. Listings also tend to be furnished and often include some/all bills. Therefore, this data is more reflective of average market price of housing than average housing price. The benefit of this for our investigation is that we are primarily interested in wether the market price of housing is affordable in a particular city, and if not, what alternatives and lines of assistance exist. Thus, for example rent controlled housing being external to our data helps us map the actual level of issues in the housing market.
