Analysis of Housing Market in Santa Clara County from 2008 to 2019
Introduction: Rent and/or mortgage take a significant percentage of our monthly income/budget. Given the impact of those numbers in our lives, for me, it is interesting to analyze the trajectory of housing prices in my county: Santa Clara. Given that, I compared data found for this county to data from other places inside and outside the country, so one can assess how valuable this market is. The goal is to present the rise of housing prices throughout the last decade, highlighting the appreciation of Real Estate after the "Housing Bubble", which led the US - nearly a decade ago - to the biggest economical crisis since 1929.
