The problem Recession Hypothesis Testing solves

Hypothesis: University towns have their mean housing prices less effected by recessions.
This project runs a t-test to compare the ratio of the mean price of houses in university towns the quarter before the recession starts compared to the recession bottom to validate or reject the hypothesis. (price_ratio=quarter_before_recession/recession_bottom)

Challenges I ran into

The challenge was extraction of data from US Officila agencies.
