    Nobody is going to commit themselves to having to drop off their kids by car every day to make it to elementary school. "Far away" is generally still going to be "they'll have to take the bike when they're old enough". Most instances of school choice are either about parents being picky about the type of education and going for something like Montessori, or a school with a higher focus on the arts. Which is more about middle class hipsterism than race.

        There are expensive private schools here, but very small numbers. Like 18 across the whole country for primary education, you can look them up here. Visibly upperclass twats are not that prevalent, our Calvinistic roots are showing there, it's okay to be filthy rich but you're supposed to hide your power levels a bit. Most of the upper class send their kids to regular schools.
