CrosswalkWhich school districts cover each community district

Percentages are the share of the community district's land area in each school district. 41 of 59 community districts fall in more than one.

Loading crosswalk...

Shares are land area, computed by intersecting the two boundary sets projected to NY State Plane Long Island (EPSG:2263). Slivers under 0.1% of a community district are dropped. School district polygons do not tile the whole city, so a few community districts total slightly under 100%: Bronx CD 10 is the largest gap at 96.0%, with the remainder falling outside any school district boundary.

Map filesBoundaries used on these pages

Both boundary sets as GeoJSON, in the exact form these maps draw them.

Community districts are from NYC Department of City Planning. School districts are the NYC Department of Education boundaries, dissolved from 33 source polygons to 32 districts (District 10 is published in two disjoint pieces). Both are simplified for web drawing; use the source datasets for measurement work.

ProgramsWhat sits behind these categories

Every site on this page belongs to one of these city programs. The logos are the agencies' own.

NYC Department of Education
Public and charter schoolsRun or authorized by the Department of Education, which also draws the school zones and the 32 community school districts. Private and parochial schools are counted here too but are not DOE schools.
NYC Child Care
Day careLicensed child care programs, including school-based preschool child care.
Pre-K For All 3-K For All
Pre-K and 3-KThe DOE early childhood programs. The city's facilities data files both under one early education code, so this hub counts them together rather than guessing a split.
