Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part 1 Steve Hill, Desiree Delaloza, Steve Muchuca & Rosa Mercado QNT/ 351 - Team A February 29, 2016 Eugene Hewitt Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Team A has created a spreadsheet based on single family homes located in the city of Bakersfield, CA. Our research reflects property address, listing price, square footage and number of bedrooms for each listing. Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Frequency Distribution List: Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Based upon this data we can conclude that the overwhelming majority of homes within Bakersfield are priced within the $2,700 - $500,000\" range. Most homes do not have values even close to ranging within a million dollars. This is substantially different from homes within Los Angeles or Orange County, where most homes start around $700,000. Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I Cost of Houses Size of homes in Sq. Ft. Mean $ 292,745 2235 Mode $425,000 556 Median $ 149,950 1440 What we see represented here is the Mean, Mode, and Median for the 100 homes. The three categories are expressed for both price and Square foot per home. When looking at the mean or the average cost over all 100 homes we see that $292,745 is the overall average cost. When looking at the Mode or the most commonly seen price we find that $425,000 is the most common seen price. When looking at the Median or the price of home that sits dead center with 50% being less and 50% being higher, we find $149,950 is the number. Now calculating the same way for square foot of the properties, we find as follows. The mean or the average square foot in the 100 homes is 2,235 overall. Looking at the mode, the most frequent square foot is 556 Sq.Ft. Finally, when looking at the Median where 50% are smaller and 50% are larger we find 1400 Sq. Ft. to be the dead middle. Chebyshev's Theorem is a fact that applies to all possible data sets. It describes the minimum proportion of the measurements that must lie within one, two, or more standard deviations of the mean. It defines that at least 1-1/K2 of data from a sample must fall down within K standard deviations from the mean, where K is any positive real number larger than one. The Probability that x is within k standard deviations of the mean is denoted as: P(|X - | < k) 1 - (1/k2). Using your input of 2 standard deviations of the mean, let's plug in and evaluate: Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I P(|X - | < 2) 1 - 1 22 P(|X - | < 2) 1 - 1 4 P(|X - | < k) 1 - 0.25 P(|X - | < k) 0.75 We will use Chebyshev's theorem to find what percentage of the values of the homes will fall between 123 (thousand) and 170 (thousand) for a data set with mean 151 and standard deviation of 14. We first subtract 151-123 and get 28, which tells us that 123 is 28 units below the mean. The second part is subtracting 179-151 and we will also get 28, which tells us that 151 is 28 units above the mean. This tells us that the values between 123 and 179 are all within 28 units of the mean. To find the standard deviation we must divide the number 28 by 14 which gives us 2. This means that they are 2 standard deviations from the mean. So now we must solve for the fraction of the homes that are within the price range we are looking for. We will substitute k for 2 and solve. So, of the data lie between 123 and 179. This also translates to 75% which implies that the data values are 75% between 123 and 179. When it comes to the empirical rule for our observed data of 100 homes which would be located on the x axis, this rule only applies to symmetrical data. About 68% of the values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean, about 95% of the values lie within 2 standard deviations of the mean, and lastly, about 99.7% of the values lie within 3 standard deviations of the mean. The Empirical Rule is an approximation that applies only to data sets with a bell-shaped relative frequency histogram. It estimates the proportion of the measurements that lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean. The empirical rule is more accurate due to it having Descriptive Statistics - Real Estate Data Part I more information about the shape of the distribution, we can be more certain of our predictions and the percentages are higher than what Chebyshev's Theorem will give us. What we are looking at is a bar graph that displays the number of rooms that are present in the 100 homes we have selected from Bakersfield California. We see that the Mean is 3.5 or to be exact 3.16. this means that the average for all the homes we selected was approximately 3 rooms per house. At the top of each Bar we find the actual count of homes that possessed the corresponding number of rooms. For example, the Bar with #38 falls between 2.25 and 3.5 meaning this represents all homes with three bedrooms. What we see for a middle size family home is that the majority of the houses will be 3 to 4 bedrooms. Some variance to this includes ranch houses or remodels or just earlier developments giving us the one two and six-bedroom house brackets.
