Washington D.C. Northwest Rent Survey

Color-Coded Rent Maps

By Paul Ohm

ohm@breadboard.com

This is a graphical depiction of every rental property listed in the classified ads. Each symbol corresponds to a single listing of a single property (although my scripts use a little AI to weed out duplicate listings, sometimes they slip through the cracks, and have been listed more than once, below.)

Each symbol has two properties, shape and color. Color represents rent based on the following order: Each step in the color order is a $300 increase in rent starting at $300. Thus, a shape of this color: represents an apartment from $300 to $599 while a property of this color: represents an apartment from $2700 to $2999. A black symbol like this, , represents an apartment of $3000 or more.

The shape of a symbol represents the number of rooms in the listed apartment. The more sides to the shape, the more rooms to the apartment. Thus, triangles represent one-bedroom units, squares are two-bedroom units, and circles represent units with more than two bedrooms or (more commonly) units whose number of bedrooms could not be ascertained from the ad.

Click on a shape to find the original ad that it represents. Hover over a shape to see the precise address represented.

Obtained from data collected from Washington Post and Washington City Paper classified ads, April 20, 2001 - September 8, 2001.
