What OP really needs to do is see what type of properties within his price range are available on a real estate site like Redfin or Zillow. If he's asking about Oakton, Madison and McLean, he's already got some idea of the demographics and/or school ratings.

Agree that budget will likely be the deciding factor here. But wanted to point out that Woodson and Chantilly have higher percentages of Asians than these three schools. Marshall has more than Madison but less than Oakton and McLean.

This is one reason why the board should really consider how many people actually act.
Everyone on this thread sees it as entirely normal and acceptable, even good in 2023 America to help someone pick a school with race as a major factor.

It was more like one poster thought OP, who is Asian, would be interested in knowing the relative percentage of Asian students at various schools. And then other posters chimed in become the post you responded to was inaccurate. But OP himself indicated he wasn't fixated on the percentage of Asian students at the schools.

Tell me you are white without telling me you are white.

I would have loved a school where my kids aren’t the racial minority.
