Quote:Is it possible there are better schools and programs in the northern cities therefore the students test better there vs the south?

 

What I am saying is there isn't as big of a difference between how smart someone in the north is vs the south.  There is certainly a difference in the funding and quality of schools in the north vs the south

I'd like to see the list from these places that shows the ratio of locals vs transplants with degrees. It's more likely that these places are where the jobs are for people with higher educational levels. For example, Washington DC is on the list, I'm guessing that most those degrees are from people that moved there for work.
