It should be noted that here
only rank locations with “Average Education Index” information. The rank that
given below might not be a perfect and complete list. Locations without “Average
Education Index” information are not listed here.
This information is based on
ACS 2006-2010 data. A total 100
results given here. The education index is an indicator of the average
education level of the population. A higher education index value means more
educated population.
***ACS stands for the U.S. Census American Community Survey. According
to the U.S. Census, if the data is a range, you can interpret data as an
average of the period of time.
