[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Greatschools ratings are a great way to evaluate the quality of the neighborhood in which you live. The lower the greatschools rating, the trashier, poorer, and more crime ridden the neighborhood will likely be. The higher the rating, the more likely you are to be in a neighborhood with high quality, upstanding citizens that actually care about their neighborhood and community. It's such a great shortcut when looking to buy real estate - it really should be one of the first things you look at before you even consider looking at a potential home. [/quote] Especially now that they won't let you put racial covenants on new developments! How else are you supposed to know which ones are the good neighborhoods? [/quote] Who said anything about race? I'm fine living amongst people of any color, I just want to live in a neighborhood with good people who actually care about their neighborhood. In most parts of the country, buying an expensive house all but ensures that. Around here, you can spend half a million dollars on a house and still live in a trashy neighborhood. Greatschools ratings will generally give you a good indicator of the type of people that live in that school pyramid. [/quote]
