Data

To analyze how Airbnb operates in Seattle, Washington, I have gotten data from Kaggle. I will be discussing the prize by zip code, average price per bedroom, etc.

The data consists of so many observations, over millions of rows and tens of columns. The data was first imported to Microsoft Excel to understand the data and perform some data cleaning and data manipulation. After then, the data was saved with the columns that I will be working with, in tableau.

Analysis and Visualization

The average prices that an apartment costs in each area by zip code. 98134 area was found to be the highest and has an average price of $206.6 and the lowest price in Seattle is found in the 98125 area with an average price of $64.7.

Next, I checked the revenue for the year using a line graph. It was seen that the patronage of Airbnb apartments. Seattle experienced growth from the month of January to March, did a little drawdown, then went back up during the summer season and comes back to the level it was in March and remain consistent until the end of the year.
