How to read this market

One record and several geographies

Boston, New York and New England appear in different questions within one combined education record. A Boston-worded result can include a school in West Newton; a university source can identify Executive Education. The local context connects those places and educational units so the combined label does not decide their meaning.

“Results combined across several locations cannot establish separate city rankings without evidence for each city.”

“A list for the whole market cannot answer every question about a particular place or service.”
