[quote=Anonymous]The way this question is asked makes me wonder where and how far the person asking it - and those responding - went to school. The encyclopedia or wikipedia will discuss this phenomenon under "demography" or "demographics". It's absolutely not new for cities, suburbs, rural areas to worry about demographic concentrations and shifts in demographic make-ups of neighborhoods. Demographic factors don't just include income, employment, race, size of households etc. They also include age. For example, many suburbs these days are grappling with aging populations, a phenomenon unheard of a couple decades ago. Meanwhile DC is seeing a surge of young families. Of course neighborhoods age (go visit sections of Bethesda or Silver Spring). But will these spatial demographic shifts happen at the speed at which it matters for much more short-lived school choice dynamics? I strongly doubt it.[/quote]
