This dataset is a modified version of the California Housing dataset available from [http://www.dcc.fc.up.pt/~ltorgo/Regression/cal_housing.html](Luís Torgo's page) (University of Porto). Luís Torgo obtained it from the StatLib repository (which is closed now). The dataset may also be downloaded from StatLib mirrors.
