Summary

The analyses presented in this report address the following question: "How much more or less does it cost to provide the same levels of educational resources across different geographic locations in the United States?" To answer this question, the report develops a comprehensive geopgraphic cost-of-education index for school services and resources that focuses on the prices of the inputs (personnel and nonpersonnel items used in the provision of school services) purchased by schools.
