I may be mis-reading but that's the general consensus from what I've gathered.
You are correct to my understanding as well.
Some communities around here have had their tier changed which resulted in lower rates. Based on this years enrollment.
The general consensus here is that many lower income families left the area when the plant shut down to take the relocation offers. Other young couples returned to parents homes.
Hopefully other places will have seen a positive boom from places like here. I hope it is simply a cycle and it will work it's way back around. Rise, fall, rebuild, rise.
Aside: We have too many vacant houses, it is weird driving through old beloved neighborhoods suddenly. I have never seen so many houses with no curtains, blinds or rocking chairs. Empty porches. Maybe it is a southern thing, but it breaks my heart.
