Case Study – Best Places to Live in California | Part 2 – Best Places to Live Report
SUMMARY
Businesses mine data in order to find patterns and correlations that may affect their business processes, products and services, and customer behaviors. When large amounts of data can be translated to patterns and correlations, the data then becomes information that the business can use for decision-making. A business professional who understands the analytics and can use the data to identify relationships, predict outcomes, and provide recommendations is invaluable to the company’s overall goals of efficiency, profitability, and growth.
Scenario
Home Trend is the top magazine in California and the go-to place for the best homes in the state as well as the best places to live in the cities and counties in Southern California. As the data analyst for Home Trend, you have been tasked with selecting the best places to live in the state based on variables provided by researchers for the company from a list of several metropolitan areas in California. The data sheet gives information for each of the 20 cities in California by county. You will write a report summarizing the data results, ranking the cities, and providing the key predictors for choosing the best place to live.
There are a number of variables that are provided to be used to assess the “quality of life” including:
Income, (average income per person; higher incomes are considered better in this scenario)
Commute (average daily roundtrip-in minutes; shorter commute is deemed better)
Job growth (forecast percentage, increase in the next 5 years; higher numbers are more positive outlook)
Physicians (number of doctors-per 100,000 population; higher numbers are deemed better for the city)
Murder rate (10-year average per 100,000; lower numbers are viewed more positively)
Rape rate (10-year average per 100,000; lower numbers are viewed more positively)
Golf (number of residents per golf hole; lower numbers are viewed more positively)
Restaurants (quality index-residents selected quality points- {in survey questions, one was for 5 star experience and five a no star rating} meaning -lower numbers are viewed more positively)
Housing (median home price; higher numbers are deemed more positive)
Median age (median age of residents)
Literacy (public library circulation per resident; higher numbers are viewed more positively)
Household income (average income per household; higher numbers are viewed more positively)
Recreation (Places rated by foremost recreation site-higher numbers indicate more recreation)
K–12 Schools (Top elementary and high schools rated by Great Schools from 1 “poor” to 10 “highest quality”)
Part 2: Best Place to Live Report
Using the key variables identified in Part 1: Identify the Key Variables, make a conclusion regarding the best and worst places to live by conducting data analysis and summarizing the key findings.
Create and test a data model based on the key variables identified.
Use the model to perform correlation and multiple regression analyses.
Write a report that addresses the factors/issues/concerns listed below:
Interpretation of the data.
Rank of the cities from best to worst. Justification of your ranking based on the performed data analysis.
What are the greatest predictors for choosing the best place to live?
What are any limitations to the rankings and interpretation of the data?
Include summary data or a copy of the data visualizations from the analysis (histogram, pie chart, etc.) to support your interpretation.
Discussion of data issues and considerations.
How was the integrity of the data maintained?

You need to add any profession of your choice and use the data from the ppt and pdf I uploaded. No need to search any other reference. Use APA 7 citation. 2 pages should be full-fledged double-spaced.
This case study assignment will reinforce concepts related to market segments, targeting, and positioning. In addition to these strategic components, the case will bring pricing strategy into the strategic planning process.
As you review the case and prepare your case study submission, please keep the following discussion points in mind:
What are the dynamics of the non-disposable razor category? Is it stable, growing, or declining? Include numbers from the case. What is Paramount’s (company that sells Clean Edge) position in the industry (i.e., market share leader, etc.)
Be sure to identify, describe, and discuss the three price/quality price tiers (value, mainstream, premium). Notice the different names. What is happening in each of those price tier segments (i.e., growing, stable, declining)? In addition to the price/quality price segments, please discuss the ‘benefits sought’ segments (e.g., aesthetic shavers) in your discussion – these segments need consideration for assessing growth trends and whether to target the mainstream or premium segment.
The central issue, in this case, is how to position Clean Edge (the newest razor technology) in the mainstream vs. premium segment. Discuss the pros/cons of targeting the mainstream segment; do the same for the premium segment. Discuss the potential profits for both segments (premium vs. mainstream) – this will require using pricing, estimated sales volume (units), and costs (variable and fixed).
Make a recommendation based on your analysis. Be sure to include potential short-term consequences and long-term consequences of your decision. Marketing managers usually put more emphasis on short-term results over long-term results (short-term sacrifice with long-term growth). Please include these considerations in this case.
The brand is considering a new campaign targeting men who use electric shavers. The VP in charge has asked for you to comment as to whether this is a good idea, and, whether you agree with the idea or not, she has asked that you provide ONE idea for targeting/reaching these people.

Your assignment for week 9 will be to create a realistic plan for family engagement in your school that takes into account potential barriers and to evaluate your plan. You may create this family engagement plan to fit the age group you are most interest in working with.
Scenario: Your student teaching experiences convinced you of the benefits for everyone when schools and families make a commitment to each other to work together. You have several ideas for supporting family engagement in your classroom. You are aware, however, of particular attitudes between parents and teachers that may create barriers to working together (e.g., lack of child care, families feeling intimidated by authority figures).
Instructions for your plan: First: Write down three parent attitudes about participation in school events that may become an obstacle. Next, consider three emotional responses from parents and teachers that may also cause barriers (e.g., painful memories of school experiences, disillusioning experiences with professionals). Last, write about three external factors (e.g., busy schedules, outdated ideas) that can undermine parent relationships. Then, give each potential barrier careful thought as to how you will try to prevent it.
Please read the attached articles as an additional resource for your Family Partnership Discussions and Family Engagement Plan. The first article outlines the benefits and barriers to family partnerships and the second articles provides the PTA Standards for Family Partnerships. The third article is current and can be applied to families and children of all ages.
