About
Provides current marketplace data on housing prices and properties in Cairo, Egypt. Given that Cairo accounts for roughly 10 million of Egypt’s population, insight into housing availability and pricing is vital. A standard, clear view of housing prices has often been lacking, and this data addresses that gap. The goal is to facilitate market exploration, uncover price insights, and serve as the foundation for building predictive models, such as those employing linear regression.
