## About Dataset
You can download the Boston House prices dataset from the site: https://www.kaggle.com/vikrishnan/boston-house-prices
Each record in the database describes a Boston suburb or town. The data was drawn from the Boston Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) in 1970. The attributes are defined as follows (taken from the UCI Machine Learning Repository1): CRIM: per capita crime rate by town

ZN: proportion of residential land zoned for lots over 25,000 sq.ft.
INDUS: proportion of non-retail business acres per town
CHAS: Charles River dummy variable (= 1 if tract bounds river; 0 otherwise)
NOX: nitric oxides concentration (parts per 10 million)

20.2. Load the Dataset 124
RM: average number of rooms per dwelling
AGE: proportion of owner-occupied units built prior to 1940
DIS: weighted distances to five Boston employment centers
RAD: index of accessibility to radial highways
TAX: full-value property-tax rate per $10,000
PTRATIO: pupil-teacher ratio by town 12. B: 1000(Bk−0.63)2 where Bk is the proportion of blacks by town 13. LSTAT: % lower status of the population
MEDV: Median value of owner-occupied homes in $1000s
We can see that the input attributes have a mixture of units.
