Inspiration

Listing visualization What features drive the price of a listing up? What can we learn about different hosts and areas? What can we learn from predictions? (ex: locations, prices, reviews, etc) Which hosts are the busiest and why? Is there any noticeable difference of traffic among different areas and what could be the reason for it?
