census-house dataset

Dataset constructed from the 1990 US Census. It contains 4 prototasks, each concerned with predicting the median price of the house in a small survey region. More information is available in the detailed documentation

Warning: There are some problems with this data set. For instance, the H18.A input is said to be the "average number of persons per ownOcc HU", but it has values between 0 and 1, which is unreasonable. Thanks to Aki Vehtari for pointing this out.
