Factors and indicators

Before showing you  our indicators and factors, we are going to specify the neighborhoods of each area.
WE HAVE CHANGE one of the area choosen:

-Barajas: we have choosen Alameda de Osuna
-Barrio Salamanca: Goya
-Moncloa-Aravaca: Francos Rodríguez.

The factors we are going to investigate are:

*Quality of education, the indicators of this factor are:
-number of schools.
-Reports about these schools.
-number of sport centres.

*Transports (comunication)
-underground stations
-bus stops
-parkings

*Feeding:
-markets
-supermarkets (relation quality-price, and proximity)
-other little shops related with this (bakery, fishery...)

*Healthy
-pharmacy
-hospital

*Silence and quiet
-discos (are not important for our family)
-crime/violence

*free time
-comercial centres
-parks (improtant for families with children)
-cinemas
-restaurants

*Cost of living
-rent (can give you the idea of the cost of living of the area, because of the situation)
-oil prices
-diary menu
-inmigration (used to live in cheaper areas)

Those factors have been choosen because we think these are the factors that influence the families in the choice of the place they want to live and are  important to evaluate the different neighborhoods for a family with children.

Presentation of our project

Hi! We are Ana San Frutos, Maite Santolaya, Silvia Sierra and Carolina Cortondo.
What we are going to do in this blog during this semester is share with you our project of investigation and how we are going to develop it.
Our project is based on the study of the different neighborhood of Madrid.

The index we are going to work on is Barajas, Chamberí and Aravaca-Moncloa and our target is a middle class family with children of 4 and 6 years old. We will compare this three neighborhoods and decide wich is the best one to live in for this kind of family.
