                From the outside, you can’t actually tell. All school buses are required to look the same, no matter who runs them -- the length, the colors, and the aisle width were all standardized

                Your chance of having private buses goes down if you live in a rural area. Those bus routes are pricey, so your school district is probably the one footing the bill.

                School-bus companies love densely populated cities: More kids + less distance between home and school = more profit.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                When kids do go back to school, that might create an odd disparity: In high-population areas, there might not be a bus to greet them.

                We’ve long been spotting a trend that we call the “boomerang of talent.” Think of someone from the Midwest who graduates from the University of Michigan, works in Silicon Valley, and -- after gaining experience -- returns home to Ann Arbor.
