This is foreign to me, can you explain it a bit more? Where I live, we have school districts, and inside those districts are boundaries for various schools. You know well before you even buy/rent your home what school boundary that home belongs to.

Sf has a lottery system to avoid all the rich kids at one school, and all the poor kids at another. It’s well motivated but totally impractical from get-kids-to-school-before-work perspective.

When I grew up, I was bussed an hour a way when I had a far nicer school in walking distance. And then a far worse school a 5 minute drive.

Logic and school districts don't usually have anything to do with one another.

Different school districts weight the location of a child's home differently when choosing which school the child should go to. In most districts location is the highest factor. In other places it's a moderate or low factor.
