Exploratory analysis: can budget predict gini index?

[banjtheman]

What is the Task

Can we create a model that can predict the Gini index of a county based on the budget priorities?

Why do we want to do this

To have a way to predict what features of a county budget may lead to income inequality.

How can I get started?

1. Create a notebook and load in the data we have collected

2. Find the latest gini index for certain county can use a site like https://datausa.io/profile/geo/arlington-va#income_distro

3. Featurize the data to train a model that can predict gini index

Note: Yes we dont have that much ata at the moment, but you can se up the groundwork to begin this.

Definition of Done

Notebook created in notebooks folder, that does some data exploration.
