# Weighted College Price
This is a Shiny application that allows the user to interactively view the change in geographically-weighted average county-level college price from 1997 to 2012. Data and analyses for this application come from a working paper that can be viewed here:
[Estimating the Education-Earnings Equation Using Geographic Variation](http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2639267)
