[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's because you don't really understand how the school system works here. Lots of people don't go to their zoned school. They lottery into charter schools or non-charter schools that accept lottery students. It's not at all unusual. And that's how you end up with high-value houses in low-rated school zones. Also, houses closer to the center of the city are worth more, regardless of their school. Obviously.[/quote] So, they have schools for the rich?[/quote] Well, I think you'll find that the better lottery schools in or near the high-price-low-rating zones are mixed-income, some of them intentionally so through a lottery preference for lower-income students.
