That updates [data.csv](data.csv). The script pulls listings from Airbnb's API by\nfiltering on the rough rectangle around Charlottesville and then filtering by city name.\n\nThe coordinates from Airbnb are obfuscated. Where possible, I manually inspect the Airbnb listing and try to find an\naddress. Where I find an address, I also update the coordinates.\n\nMany of the addresses were copied from [Erin's CSV](https://github.com/erinleeryan/cville_airbnb/blob/fe5500c2c9236623e7ba0f8094731cdcd5f51811/data/cville_airbnb_locations.csv).\n\nThe script is designed to preserve the manually updated coordinates and address.\n\nListings come and go from the API results. Where the `active` column contains `true`, the most recent API scrape\ncontained the listing. Where the `active` column is `false`, the listing was once present in the API response but is no\nlonger. Some listings appear/disappear frequently. Use the \"blame\" feature in GitHub to view the history of a certain \nlisting.\n\nThe \"2023 approved\" column contains \"true\" if the address is known to have been approved in 2023. The list of approved\naddresses is in [2023_approved.csv](2023_approved.csv). It's joined to data.csv whenever main.py is run.\n\n## Roadmap\n\n* Make it easy to swap in a different city. This would mean making the 2023_approved.csv file optional and more general.\n  Maybe the approval status should be added by a separate script.\n* Make the script handle missing CSVs more gracefully. Right now the script fails if CSV isn't present.\n* Get date of most recent review, so we have a sense of whether the listing is active.\n* Get the number of reviews left in the last 12mo.\n* Note in data whether the listing falls in a zoning area that requires registration. (This may be difficult if we don't have GIS data for the new zoning areas yet.)\n* Generate a human-readable report from the data.\n* Add arbitrary \"notes\" column.\n* Generate a report describing single addresses with multiple listings.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcrenshaw-dev%2Fcville-airbnbs","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcrenshaw-dev%2Fcville-airbnbs","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcrenshaw-dev%2Fcville-airbnbs/lists"}
