This episode features a discussion with statistics PhD student Zach Seeskin about a project he was involved in as part of the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Data Science for Social Good Summer Fellowship. The project involved exploring the relationship (if any) between streetlight outages and crime in the City of Chicago. We discuss how the data was accessed via the City of Chicago data portal, how the analysis was done, and what correlations were discovered in the data. Won't you listen and hear what was found?
