The lack of affordable housing is a major challenge faced by British Columbians.
In this assignement, I will focus on examining the data at the “regional” level of Provincial Health Authority (PHA; Fraser, Interior, Northern, Vancouver Coastal, & Vancouver Island)using data for BC from the 2016 Census, which is available from the BC data catalogue (https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset?download_audience=Public), to address the following research questions:
i. Do rental subsidization rates differ across regions of the Province (i.e. PHAs)?
ii. Are the rental subsidization rates correlated to socioeconomic factors?
Mean and Median of Rental Subsidy Rates Accross PHAs
KS test and T-test Result on Rental Subsidy Rates Across Different PHAs
Correlation between Result on Rental Subsidy Rate and Other Factors
