How schools affect Eastover property
Assignment is priced into Eastover values, but less mechanically than in neighborhoods where the school is the only amenity. A large share of buyers here use independent schools and buy for the houses, the canopy, and the location.
The practical effect is stability rather than volatility: assignment changes elsewhere in the county tend to move demand toward established corridors like this one rather than away from them.
