first understand, i dont have kids.. you the op stated that the schools were #1 priority, second you mentioned that philly has 350 murders, this is nothing... compared to st louis, cleveland, or detroit... now you changed it to "violent crime" which opens up a new ball of wax.... so also source your #10 in violent crime.. and i never said that vegas was "so violent"..

sheesh!

I know this isn't on topic with the thread!

But, this is interesting!

My Father was a chronic mover...I lived in about two dozen houses, a dozen towns and half-dozen different schools. Yeah, it's a complete mess for the kids!

I am a bit curious how your kids took it.
