Either schools are of critical importance to a homebuyer, or they matter not at all.
There’s very little middle ground because either homebuyers have kids or they don’t.
Trulia’s recent survey found that when searching for a home, the quality of the local schools is an important factor for families with children.
According to a recent Trulia survey, 19% of Americans indicated that their dream home is located in a great school district. But among parents of children under 18, the percentage of Americans who want to live in a great school district jumps to 35%, in contrast to 12% of those without kids.
Also, the survey also revealed that a great school district is almost twice as important to those who search online for their dream home on a weekly or monthly basis than those who only search annually.
Here’s what they found.
