What’s also interesting is how few people actually make such runs for the walls. The prosecution and school officials from nearby districts all acknowledged that sneaking kids into a better school district is quite rare. 4. The following statistics come from Jennifer Wheary, Thomas M. Shapiro, and Tamara Draut, By a Thread: The New Experience of America’s Middle Class, Institute on Assets and Social Policy at Brandeis University, 2007, available at http:// iasp.brandeis.edu/pdfs/Author/draut-tamara/By%20A%20Thread.pdf. 5. See generally Richard Briffault, Our Localism: Part I—The Structure of Local Government Law, 90 Colum. L. Rev. 1 (1990). 6. Briffault argues that localism engenders a privatization of interests that erodes concern for a wider public sphere. See, Our Localism: Part I, supra, at 6. 7.

The specific census findings that follow may be found at http://diversitydata.sph. harvard.edu/. 9. Let’s pause and think about what this does not mean. Families are not everyone. People are getting married and not having kids. More people are choosing not to get married at all. And more and more women of all races are heading their own households with young children. The traditional notion of families is clearly in flux along with the historical significance of families with children. Spatial context is also important. The metropolitan area is the important geographic measure because it’s the interconnected seat of both population and economic growth. Yet people do live outside of these areas. And within them, central cities —which may yet regain their cultural and economic importance—attract millions of single adults. 10.
