Clemson ranked as SC's most educated city |
Clemson University is well-known for being one of the top public schools in the nation as alumni flock back to Clemson to live near their beloved school.
A recent report by Insurify named Clemson as South Carolina's most educated city in their composite rankings. The company used data from more than 1.4 million insurance applications to determine their top city in each state. "Using a proprietary scoring algorithm, our analysts calculated a score for each applicant based on educational achievement, and, for current high school students, likelihood of advancement to college based on reported GPA," Insurify.com said. "The resulting data set was analyzed to determine the average scores for each city across all age ranges, and a composite score was created for each city. Top scoring cities were then selected for all U.S. states." "According to our data, these 50 communities—some established economic and cultural centers; some smaller, family-oriented towns—graduate at the top of their class," according to the report from Insurify.
