I made an app that takes data scraped from craigslist and utilizes a random forest model to generate price predictions!

I deployed an app via plotly dash onto heroku to expose the prediction model endpoint.

See insights and process pages for an overview of the project.
Things I cover:

  • Model selection and evaluation metrics.
  • An important lesson in practical data science
  • Insights on the dataset scraped from Craigslist
  • How to interpret a random forest Shapley Values
  • A choropleth

Plus the app is fun to play with!
