Hello all you Correlationers!
Here are Correlation of the Week, we like to think of ourselves of as a happy go lucky family that likes to get together to discuss data by a campfire on a cool autumn night. There’s nothing like warm conversation by a warm fire where time seems to stand still. It’s nice that the weather is finally changing because we sure looked a pretty silly sitting by a campfire in the middle of the summer in 90 degree heat and 90% humidity! Other than data another core component that brings us together are tasty treats and nothing satisfies a craving like chocolate chip cookies with frosted coffee from Chick-fil-A. Right now it’s easier to justify their perfect cookies because in the month of October when you buy a 6 pack the proceeds will go to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta! Unfortunately as a wise poet once proclaimed “every rose has its thorn” there’s another piece of data that’s been following Chick-fil-A’s increase in popularity and it brings us to this week’s correlation! That’s right! The Google trends search popularity for Chick-fil-A and the Zillow Rent Index in Atlanta is 97% correlated from Q1 2014 to Q2 2020! I mean the cookies are good but do they really need to increase the price of rent because they’re so good?
