Overview & Objectives
This GitHub project analyzes demographic census data using Python and Pandas. The analysis answers practical questions about age, education, race, salary groups, working hours, occupation, and country-level income distribution.
The project is relevant for the portfolio because it shows core data analysis skills: reading structured data, filtering records, grouping data, calculating percentages, and producing accurate summary insights from a real-world demographic dataset.
Project Goal
Use Python to analyze demographic data and answer clear questions about income, education, work patterns, and population groups.
The Business Problem
The dataset had many demographic fields and the goal was to convert raw census records into clear answers about income, education, race, occupation, and work patterns.
Methodology
My Approach
- 1Loaded and explored the demographic dataset with Pandas.
- 2Grouped and filtered data by race, education, salary, country, occupation, and working hours.
- 3Calculated percentages and summary statistics.
- 4Structured the analysis so each business-style question returns a clear result.
Implementation
Roadmap Execution
