With knowledge of the utilization of Venice's housing stock, the city of Venice can understand how the influx of tourists affects available housing for residents. As tourist arrivals in the city increase so does the risk to Venice's cultural and historical significance. One effect of so many tourists in Venice has been the reduction in housing for the city's residents and students. In this project we used data sets derived from water and telecommunications usage to answer three main objectives. Understand the housing stock in Venice. Analyze the intensity of usage of homes in Venice. Determine how homes in the city are being used.
