Multi-Source Data Analysis Project

Research Question

How do economic indicators, demographic characteristics, and social/religious factors vary across U.S. states, and what patterns emerge when integrating data from diverse sources?

Project Overview

This project demonstrates end-to-end data integration from multiple sources to create a comprehensive dataset of U.S. state-level statistics. Data is collected, cleaned, and merged from three distinct sources:

  1. Flat File Processing - USDA Economic Research Service labor force and unemployment statistics
  2. Web Scraping - State religiosity metrics from Wikipedia (2014 Pew Research study)
  3. API Integration - U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey demographic data

The cleaned datasets are stored in a SQLite database and used for aggregate analysis and visualization. The project showcases core data engineering skills including data extraction, transformation, storage, and exploratory analysis across diverse data formats.
