U.S. Real Estate Heat Maps from Zillow, HotPads, and Trulia; Stock Market Heat Maps Too!

Real estate dbases, Zillow.com, Trulia, and HotPads, now all offer heat maps to illustrate "hot" (or cold) neighborhoods for real estate in various cities.

The HotPads Heat Maps are available for the United States. Interactive versions are also available. You'll find neighborhood listings along with the following Census data:
+ Population Density
+ Per Capita Income
+ Median Household Income
+ Median Age
+ Percent Renters
+ Median Rent

Trulia:
Look for the "heat map tab" at the top of the search box. Search by city name or zip code to determine if a "heat map" is available. Here's an example of a Trulia "heat map" for the Chicago metropolitan area. From the page:

See home prices and popularity trends in Chicago, IL, by neighborhood or ZIP—sort by avg. listing price, avg. sales price, median sales price, avg. price/sqft and search popularity. Choose between seeing the actual prices or year-over-year (y-o-y) percentage changes on the map.

Also note the advanced search page and its many options.

+ Zillow
Look for the "heat map" option when you search by address or zip code. It's located next to the hybrid map view. "Heat Maps" are available at the city view level. Btw, Zillow includes "recently sold" home data and each home for sale offers a "comparables" link to see prices that similar homes in the area have sold for.

Thursday, 24th May 2012

Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
