[quote=Anonymous]Another way to look at this for the college-educated parent who's had a few courses in statistics and economic analysis: Housing prices are intimately and directly correlated with parental income. So if parental income, social/educational status is your key criteria for buying into a neighborhood, then all you need to do is look at the home prices. Taking school poverty rates as an indicator isn't getting you any closer. In fact it may just blur your analysis. Now, all this said, I don't think your criteria is a good one given how much research shows children benefit from a culturally, racially, and also socioeconomically non-homogeneous context. If against all odds and despite of all the evidence you're looking for a socioeconomically homogeneous environment, then Capitol Hill may not be your prime location. But that digresses from your question.[/quote]
