Do you have data showing that the schools are worse than similar schools elsewhere with the same demographics? The districts you list have been full of rich white people since forever.
- balls187 9y agoDo you have data showing that those districts are rich white people, and without large pockets of Chinese and SE Asian families? Median home price in Seattle is $722k (src: http://www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/more-records-fall-median-home-price-hits-722000-in-seattle-and-880000-on-eastside/ http://www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/more-record...) Median home price in Eastside is $880k (same source) Home prices have direct correlation to school test scores.

- balls187 9y agoFunny enough Amazon has turned Seattle into that, but much worse. Small family run restaurants have been replaced by restaurants run by business-minded chefs serving overpriced and mediocre fare. There still exists some of seattle's former self, however Seattle is trending towards the bland and generic eastside, just without the parking and good schools.
