[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What data? [/quote] I think the person is asking if there's a actual data or source about kids now prefer schools in/adjacent to cities. I don't think there's actual data, but the trend is real.[/quote] The trend is definitely seen in the DMV schools that my kids and my friends' kids go to anyway...all these kids want city schools (preferably on the coasts but there's some flexibility on that). Really high ranked/high stats kids from DC's school are much more likely to apply to U Penn/Columbia/Brown/Hopkins/U Chicago/Northwestern than Dartmouth/Princeton as their reaches; they are not applying to rural or small town SLACs (think Bowdoin/Bates/Kenyon/Carleton) but are applying to schools like Occidental, Fordham, and Macalester in droves.
