DESCRIPTION:The United States has undergone two massive shifts in housing 
 and schooling in the past 40 years. First\, residential income segregation
  has markedly increased\, especially among families with children. Second\
 , postsecondary enrollment has greatly expanded\, likely as a result of hi
 gher wages for college-educated workers. As these two secular trends have 
 ascended side-by-side\, a puzzle has emerged: Are families competing for n
 eighborhoods that can ensure their children’s success in the college gam
 e? If so\, are families increasingly hoarding geo-spatial opportunities to
  maximize their children’s socioeconomic success? To illuminate possible
  answers to these questions\, I examine three successive cohorts of restri
 cted data on students going to college in the early 1980s\, the mid-2000s\
 , and the late 2010s to understand whether the neighborhoods in which stud
 ents grew up have increasingly differential impacts on their college enrol
 lment and college selectivity outcomes. Using geocoded data from the NLSY 
 1979\, NLSY Children and Young Adults\, and transcript data from the High 
 School Longitudinal Study\, I track students from childhood and adolescenc
 e through young adulthood and find that the neighborhoods where they grew 
 up indeed do have increasingly differential impacts on their college outco
 mes across these three cohorts of students. I discuss the potential implic
 ations for future economic disparities as increased competition for housin
 g among families contracts students’ access to higher education.\nSpeake
