New Tool Shows Exact School District Assignments for Homes

Location is so important to real estate buyers in part because of the quality of school district assignments associated with a home. Now, education.com has released a tool that allows users to find the exact school district assignments of any home in the United States.

School Boundaries, their creation, can be found on their website but also can be used as a widget on other real estate websites and blogs. This mapping tool is free, and uses the data from all 13,000 school districts in the country. It can also specify schools for 55% of the country.

Using Google Maps, users can view school boundaries, filter by elementary, middle, and high schools, and see the schools’ test ratings. This could be a great widget for homebuyers everywhere.
