- In the Five County Region, total operating expenditures per
student vary widely across districts.
- In 5CR, approximately 40% of districts spend $7,000-8,000 per
student.
- In 5CR, approximately 25% of districts spend $10,000-11,000 per
student.
- Outside Los Angeles County, 60% of districts spend $7,000-8,000
per student.
- In Los Angeles County, only approximately 20% of districts spend
$7,000-8,000 per student.
- However, in LACO, more than 45% of districts spend $10,000-11,000
per district.
- Thus, most districts in LACO spend more per student than what most
districts in OLACO spend per student.
Most students attend districts
spending $7,000-9,000 per student.

- In the Five County Region, about 50% of students attend
districts spending $7,000-8,000 per student.
- Outside Los Angeles County, about 55% of students attend
districts spending that amount.
- In Los Angeles County, approximately 45% of students attend
districts spending that amount.
- Notice also that, though very few districts in OLACO spend
$11,000+ per student (from above), there is a surprisingly higher
proportion of students in OLACO attending those districts than
expected.
- Notice that, though most districts in LACO spend $10,000-11,000
per student (from above), most students in LACO attend districts
that spend $7,000-8,000 per student, implying that fewer students
attend those higher spending districts.
