Everyone understands the value of a good education but a recent study by ATTOM Data Solutions reveals the relationship between U.S. Home values, appreciation and quality schools (defined as those with text scores one-third higher than the state average). In this study the average home value win a ZIP code with at least one quality elementary school was 77 percent higher than homes in areas without good schools.

Moreover, homes in good school districts appreciate up to three times more than those in lower quality districts.
