Counts are measured inside the district’s GIS boundary, not estimated from ZIP codes — ZIP and school-district lines do not align, and the two methods differ by as much as a factor of two. District membership is derived from each parcel’s centroid, so a parcel straddling the boundary may be attributed to one side; this is a research reference, not a determination of school enrollment eligibility. Lot-size figures are computed from the 99% of parcels carrying measured acreage on the current roll.

Coverage and scope
Each district page aggregates parcels whose primary ZIP maps to that district under our ZIP-to-district lookup. ZIPs spanning multiple districts are attributed to their primary district. School-tax arrears estimates are derived from each parcel's own tax history where available; districts outside our current coverage are excluded rather than estimated. Updated annually.
