Introduction

This is my submission for the Shiny Application & Reproducible Pitch for Developing Data Products week 4 assignment. This application was developed to visiualize complaints received by Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (between 2001 and 2016)

data <- fread("Consumer_complaints.csv") 
nrow(data)
[1] 687254
length(unique(data$Category))
[1] 12

Ther are a total of 687,254 complaints and 12 distinct Complaint categories

The data set is available at Data.Gov
