WASHINGTON –
The personal finance website WalletHub has released a list of most and least educated cities in the United States for 2022 and two Washington cities made the cut.
Seattle cracked the top ten, coming in at #9 on the list, while Spokane was 51st.
An unfortunate reality of the COVID pandemic is that test score gaps between low-poverty and high-poverty school districts have increased by as much as 20% in some areas of the country.
WalletHub compared 150 of the largest metro areas in the U.S. across eleven different metrics, including the amount of residents aged 25 or older with a college degree.
The top three most educated cities were Ann Arbor, MI, San Jose, CA, and Washington, D.C.
