Incorporate economic information about area
When real estate investing, it's important to know the economy of the market that you are investing in. When evaluating a property, economic factors such as job growth, planned development, and public transportation availability in the local market are good to understand. I'm looking to build this information into the app somehow.
Is this still up for grabs? I would like to take it on and see what I can do.
Hey Clinton, yes it is. I've found a few data sources to get you started if you're interested.

Great! I would love to take a look at those, I glanced over the census data you attached just now and it looks like they have a good API that will come in handy. Just a heads up, this is my first open source project I am contributing to so just let me know if I'm doing anything extra dumb.
There's also this Census community survey API that could be used to get economic info for a given property address. https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets/acs-1year.html
