The adult culture is more refined towards the working class, with in Wauwatosa there is a medical college and multiple hospitals, and cooperate work settings for the adults although a large number of the people commute to outside of Wauwatosa to work. Because of the parents working so much daycare is a large part of the everyday life as well. Lots of the larger jobs actually have a daycare built in making it more convenient to the workers.
The non-material culture of Wauwatosa Wisconsin Is largely centered around family values and art. Seeing as a large majority of the population are part of an immediate family, and live within walking distance of a school the value of family and safety is one of the highest concerns for my town. In my neighborhood almost every house consists of a small family’s. A lot of the household’s take safety as a large priority. I live within walking distance of an elementary school so ‘drive slowly’ or ‘school crossing’ signs litter my neighborhood. Little kids are always playing in their front yards and the neighbors always look out from them making sure that everyone is safe and nothing is out of line. The family safety also falls under the material part of the Wauwatosa’s culture. It seems almost every family as the NextDoor app
According to the crime index, Peoria is considered to be safer than 7% of the cities in the US. In Illinois, more than 97% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Peoria. When compared to other communities with a similar population size, Peoria’s crime rate is higher than average ("Crime Rates for Peoria, IL"). Like most cities, Peoria is going to have records of violent offenses including things like rape, murder and non-negligent manslaughter, armed robbery, and aggravated assault. But different areas of Peoria are going to differ on their crime rate based on the class level that lives there and the security precautions taken in that area. Because a lot of students will be living off campus in houses or apartments, it is important for Bradley to understand the likelihood of a crime involving those students might face while not
In today’s society, and even generations before us, kids safety is very important. Also, traveling in an automobile is
“Residents were asked about the likelihood (‘would you say it is very likely, likely, neither likely nor unlikely, unlikely, or very unlikely’) that their neighbors could be counted on to intervene in various ways if (i) children were skipping school and hanging out on a corner, (ii) children were spray-painting graffiti on a local building, (iii) children were showing disrespect to an adult, (iv) a fight broke out in front of their house, and (v) the fire station closes to their home was threatened with budget cuts” (Sampson et al., 1997, 919-920).
Naperville, Wheaton and Spring Lake are suburbs. The population and population per square mile demographically show that these communities are suburbs. The websites of each of these areas also show that these communities are all suburbs. They are all very similar with a few differences. They pride themselves on safety and family oriented aspects. Each community has highly ranked schools, parks, and countless family events. The majority of the population in each town is white. Wheaton and Naperville both talk about how their communities offer a “small town” feel with easy access to the comforts of chicago. Spring Lake also says that they are a “small and friendly community” located close to Grand Rapids. Each of the towns seem to boast about
The demographic research that I conducted was a little bit confusing because I need to include not only the school that I went to but also, another high school and school district. I compared two different high schools (Holland Christian and Zeeland East), as well as two different school districts (Holland City Schools and Zeeland Public Schools), neither or which gave a firm view on the actual school I attended (Holland Christian), because it is private, it is not part of any of the public school districts. That being said, I was able to give a good picture of the area Holland, as well as the specifics about Holland Christian. Because of this, this summary will only reflect the work on Holland Christian and Holland School District.
The south-west corner of WA was the territory of the Nyungar people. Therefore, the first inhabitants of the area of what is now the City of Rockingham (WA) were part of the Nyungar Aboriginal tribe.
In April, 2010 the percentage of White Americans with no Hispanic or Latino background was 64.6 percent by April 2015 the percentage decreased to 61.3 percent.

("Population estimates, July 1, 2015, (V2015)") These estimates show us how Polk County has grown in population and ethnicity throughout several years. With the increase in population we cannot leave out poverty levels, “17.7 percent of the suburban population in the Lakeland metro area (Polk County) was living in poverty as of 2010” (Kennedy, 2013). Unfortunately the poverty rate as of 2015 has not had a dramatic change, all age poverty was at 17.3 percent and of that 17.3 percent “ages of 5-17 in families of poverty are 25.1 percent” ("Office of Economic & Demographic Research the Florida Legislature"). Polk County history, size and other areas mentioned so far on this paper are important for determining the number, and types of schools along with class sizes and backgrounds of student’s teachers will be working

Washington’s population is primarily white at 69% (not including Hispanics), with Hispanics comprising 12.4%, Asians 8.6%, and African Americans 4.1% (“QuickFacts”).

My data analysis of racial demographics in the school district shows that the area is uniquely isolated – surrounded by communities that don’t look similar. At Palos Verdes Peninsula High, there are two primary ethnic groups that attend school – white students and Asian students. Combined, they make up over 75% of the high school population, while white students represent the largest overall at just over 40%. The third largest ethnic group represented is Hispanic or Latino students, of which there are only 262. This equals about one-tenth of the high school. The district overall has even higher percentages of white students, totaling almost 48%. Only 12% of the district’s students identify as either Hispanic or

I’m girl who was born and raised in the beautiful city of Milwaukee. It always puzzled me why Milwaukee isn’t Wisconsin capitol, I must just have too much pride in my city. It is just a shame Milwaukee is not what it used to be. I remember when I was a child there was so much life in this city. It was safe, clean, it was a place many could call home.
