Minimum Wage: 1968 to 2019 Actual vs. Inflation Adjusted # Overview and Sources Created: April 1, 2021 The dataset used in this project was initially scraped from the US Department of Labor. Note, this dataset uses the minimum wage (and takes the lower value in years where there are multiple) which represents the phase-in amounts when the law was enacted to include new populations. # Data Wrangling I’ll start by loading in the required packages.

Background Last week (2/13 to 2/21), I had the opportunity to explore somewhere I’ve never been, Arizona. More specifically, I visited Phoenix, Sedona, and Scottsdale which are all beautiful cities. I flew out on the 5:30 AM flight out of BNA (Nashville, TN) and landed in PHX (Phoenix, AZ) around 8:30 AM to meet my girlfriend at the airport. After a 20-minute ride, we arrived at our hotel, the JW Marriott Phoenix Desert Ridge.

Introduction As mentioned in another post, I’m also curious as to the savings, or lack of savings, from EV (specifically Tesla) ownership. If you haven’t read the post I’m referring to, feel free to check it out here. In that post, you can see the total cost of charging ($297) based on my experiences. I’ve owned the car (2020 Tesla Model 3 SR+) for about eight months or so and have since clocked a lifetime-to-date odometer reading of 7,862 miles.
