Geospatial Analysis of School Choice

A special issue of the American Journal of Education takes on school choice - including several articles that use GIS to explore the topic. (press release)

It’s typically a fee-based journal, but two articles of interest to geospatial practitioners (and others!) are free to read:

School Choice in Suburbia: Test Scores, Race, and Housing Markets

School Choice and Competitive Incentives: Mapping the Distribution of Educational Opportunities across Local Education Markets

Among the findings: how much housing prices rise based on a local school’s test scores and minority population.
