I'm trying to install a really important python package osmnx for python 3.7. Below is what I got. I searched on this for the afternoon and tried updating the setuptools but it didn't work.

The OSMnx documentation recommends installing with conda. If you prefer to use pip, you need to make sure you install all the C extension dependencies on your system first (which is really difficult and time consuming on windows; for example the error you're getting says you haven't installed the geos dependency). I recommend using conda to install it like:

conda config --prepend channels conda-forge
conda create -n ox --strict-channel-priority osmnx

Hi Professor Boeing, thank you so much for helping me with the question. I did the conda installation following your advice. However, another error popped up when I was trying to import osmnx in jupyter notebook. I added the error codes back to my original question.
I cannot edit my original question so I'll just add a new comment here. I opened an issue regarding the problem in Jupyter Notebook (the error codes are the same when I was trying to import osmnx in PyCharm). Here's the issue link: github.com/conda-forge/osmnx-feedstock/issues/42
