And I get it, this is a place for posting\/requesting datasets.<\/p>\n<p>So, here&#8217;s an actual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaggle.com\/datasets\/ryansherby\/ca-housing-data\">dataset<\/a> of CA housing data I generated using the <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ryansherby\/RedfinScraper\">RedfinScraper<\/a> library. Scraping these 47,000 records took just over 3 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>While this data may be useful today, the fact is, it will only be useful for about a week longer. The high-velocity nature of housing data means that datasets need to be updated frequently.<\/p>\n<p>This issue was the driving force for sharing this library publically: to allow users to quickly scrape the latest housing data at their leisure.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you find this library useful, and I am excited to see what you create with it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- SC_ON -->   submitted by   <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/ryan_s007\"> \/u\/ryan_s007 <\/a> <br \/> <span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/datasets\/comments\/12215by\/scrape_thousands_of_records_of_housing_data_using\/\">[link]<\/a><\/span>   <span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/datasets\/comments\/12215by\/scrape_thousands_of_records_of_housing_data_using\/\">[comments]<\/a><\/span><\/p><div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-right'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-14986 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='14986' data-nonce='763084672f' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-14986 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div> <div class='status-14986 status align-right'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey r\/datasets, I originally posted this library earlier this week, but it got downvoted once within 10&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14986","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-othernonsense","wpcat-7-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14986","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14986"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14986\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14986"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14986"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.graviton.at\/letterswaplibrary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14986"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
