Abstract: School district houses, which are houses near schools, are popular because of the learning resources and school places they can offer.

Schools in the United States are divided into private and public schools based on who they support and who they are affiliated with, and public high schools, elementary schools, and kindergartens, all of which are based on the principle of proximity. Under U.S. law, any child living in the school district has the right to a free education.


Areas with good schools attract families with children to live around these schools, creating so-called school districts.


Public Elementary and Secondary Schools and School Districts


Public elementary and secondary schools in the United States are funded primarily by property taxes in the areas surrounding the schools. The tax rate varies from place to place, and is mostly between 1% and 3%.


Private elementary and secondary schools are not district related


Private elementary and secondary schools in the U.S. cost a minimum of $20,000 to $30,000 per year in tuition for a quality school, regardless of where the student lives. Secondly, if a student is found to be "rotten wood" or "bad material" after enrollment, he or she will be removed from the school.

College has nothing to do with school district


There are many good colleges in the United States, and there is no proximity rule for colleges.


However, tuition at public universities in the U.S. is not the same in-state as it is out-of-state. For example, out-of-state, including foreign, students pay $30,000 a year, while in-state students pay a little over $10,000. If you want to take advantage of the in-state tuition discount:In-state residency for one year prior to the start of the school year.


Many people mistakenly believe that a good school district is the city or area where that school is located, but without verifying the specific address of the property, it is likely that even if you buy a good school district, you will not get into a good school nearby. And generally school districts have good small"school districts.


So if you want to buy a school district property, you must be specific about the address of each property and check the school district where the property is located. In Chino, for example, the overall school district is not very good, but the preserve community has its own school, so its API score is much higher than Chino's.


More than 1,600 of the best high schools in the nation are located in every state, but the top 100 are relatively concentrated in a few states:California, Florida, Maryland, New York, Virginia, Texas, Washington, and so on. That means California has more top high schools, with Irvine being at the top of the list.


The price of a school house in the United States is slightly higher. The average price of a school house in the United States is more than 200,000, and in California, for example, where the number of high schools is the highest, it costs more than 500,000 to buy a school house, and even more than 700,000 in Irvine.

Can an outsider buy a school district house to get in?


The answer is that you can get into a school. In the U.S., if you buy or rent a school district home, you can get directly into your own district's school through the proximity principle, no test required. If you do not have a green card, you need to have a student ID (I-20) to get in, and some cities will even deny admission to students without a green card.


The relationship between property taxes and schools and school districts


Public schools are funded primarily by property taxes in the area surrounding the school, and school districts are funded in direct proportion to the amount of property taxes. With more funding, schools have the financial resources to improve the quality of teaching and learning.


In the United States, if you own a home, you pay real estate taxes. Collected by the county or municipal government, the tax rate varies from place to place, most are 1% to 2%, some areas will be higher than 2%, real estate taxes are based on the assessed value of the home.


Each year, local governments publish details of where the real estate taxes go. Usually more than half of the total real estate tax goes to public elementary and secondary schools, such as repairing buildings, purchasing equipment, hiring teachers, conducting activities, and bus transportation.


If a school district has high property prices and high real estate taxes, there will be more money to spend on schools and the quality of education will improve. Good schools are bound to attract parents to buy school district housing, thus pushing up the price of housing.
