Abstract
The expansion of school choice over the past decade has weakened the strong link between neighborhoods and schools created under a strict residence-based school allocation system, decoupling residential and school enrollment decisions for some families. Recent work suggests that the link between the neighborhood and the school is weakening further in rural neighborhoods (gentrification). A novel combination of individual, school, and neighborhood data linking children to assigned and enrolled schools was analyzed using a quantitative method. The goal of this study was to examine the family, school, and neighborhood factors that determine whether parents enroll in their assigned local school. It was found that parents are more likely to opt out of gentrified neighborhood schools compared to nearby urban choice neighborhoods with availability. It is concluded that there is a tendency to choose a school for urban change by neglecting neighborhood ties.
