ShotsFiredBoston

Quick Start.

  • Navigate to my Tableau Dashboard to get an overview of my EDA.
  • See my Jupyter Notebook above for an in-depth detrending of data and a multiple regression analysis of current trends in Boston MA.

The What.

This is an exploration of gun violence in Boston, MA to see if gun violence is increasing or decreasing year-over-year while detrending for extraneous factors such as seasonlity and weather.

The Why.

Gun violence is a major issue in the United States. It's an issue that I've covered as a documentarian and journalist, with my work being published by ReelSouth and PBS.

So I wanted to know how my hometown, Boston, is faring in the midst of this nationwide epidemic.

Usage.

  • This is completely free use.

Data Sourcing

  • Incident data has been obtained from Boston Data.
  • Weather data has been obtained from NOAA.
