San Francisco rent

July 31, 2007

Ethan Garner has been collecting data on rents in San Francisco based on craigslist postings since Aug 2006. Based on this data, he has created a lovely visualization of where the rental market is hot (via information aesthetics).

Garner claims to have created this project out of boredom, while a grad student in biochemistry at UCSF. I don’t believe it. He’s clearly got a passion for coding, and with the vast amount data out here on the internet easily mined or already collected, this guy will never be bored.
