I know that there are a few municipalities in the U.S. that have made some of their governmental records available via API. Off the top of my head, I'm not sure which ones, but there is likely a boat load of under analyzed data there. Similarly, the Census Bureau has a lot of large data sets.

Which book are you going to be studying?

I haven't decided on one yet although I did come across this HN thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4973450.

Do you have any recommendations?

No, I don't. Sorry. Thanks for the link. I'm actually looking to start learning some advanced stats also, so I'm on the lookout for resources.
