| FindMyArea is a small web app that helps property renters/buyers find the perfect area to live in based on their criteria. It only handles London for now, but soon it’ll be the rest of the UK and then other cities/countries (data permitting!). You pop in the stuff you care about (budget, commute destinations, local amenities etc) and then with a bit of simple maths, the tool will give you a list of areas (e.g. Shoreditch or Richmond) that satisfy your requirements. More details on how the scoring engine works here: https://findmyarea.co.uk/blog/how-findmyarea-works/ Eventually I’d like to turn FindMyArea into a tool where you can find the right area for anything. Not just finding areas to live in, but also areas that are ripe for investment or relocating to if you’re 100% remote (or for the perfect holiday, if that’s more your thing). Currently I’m not sure if there’s an easy way of doing this besides using GIS software/something like Tableau, which is obviously pretty inaccessible to the average user. Anyway, that’s just a distant goal for now. Let me know what you think of this first version! (btw the design isn’t great -- I’m a data scientist, not a web developer...) |
