Definitions

School enrollment reports on persons actively enrolled in an educational institution at the time of the survey. On this page, the following grade levels are used:

  • Preschool: anything before kindergarten, typically anything between ages 2 and 4
  • Kindergarten: the year before first grade, typically around age 5
  • Grades 1-12: typically started at age 6 and lasting until age 17 or 18
  • Undergraduate: in this context, it means and two or four year college, but excluding any graduate education
  • Graduate School: anything above undergraduate, including pursuit of master's, professional, or doctorate degrees
  • Public School: owned and operated by the government
  • Private School: owned and operated by a private organization, often but not always with a religious affiliation

Unlike the other geographical entities detailed on this site, neighborhoods are not recognized by the U.S. Census Bureau. To overcome this we have computed reasonable estimates of the same statistics that are presented for other the entity types. Each statistic is computed as the weighted sum or average of the census tracts or block groups that overlap the neighborhood. A weighted sum is used for counts of people or households, and a weighted average is used for statistics that are themselves some form of average, such as median household income. Census block groups are preferred when the statistic in question is available on the block group level. The weight for a given tract (or block group) is computed as the population of the census tabulation blocks that occupy the intersection between the tract and the neighborhood as a fraction of the total population of the neighborhood.
