Census Tract - Zip Code Mapping #2 #20

Open osuhomebase opened 7 years ago

osuhomebase commented 7 years ago

All of our data is by Census Tract or Zip Code. Each row of Zip Code data will need to be applied to multiple rows of Census Tract data. This seems trivial at first, but there are multiple zip codes per neighborhood in the files that Joshua is cleaning. He will need to pick one zip code and then we will need to figure out what zip codes belong to each neighborhood. Alternatively, we can write some sort of distance script that figures it out for us. I found an API that should help: https://www.zipcodeapi.com/API

Adding both of us as assignees... we will have to wait until most of the other tasks are complete first.
