**Community Data ** To start of all this information you want to see if East Cranston Community is the right one for you and your kids. The first information we come across is Income and Poverty. Below you will get more details about it and following is Census based- indicators and last but not least about this community I used Race ethnicity. I chose these three to describe Cranston Community because I believe this are the top three that can sway your decision on East Cranston and prove to you that is is a great community for you and your family.

Income/Poverty (2008-2012): household income || 58,772 || 56,102 || 53,046 || Family income || 73,857 || 72,872 || 64,585 || poverty level || 6.6% || 9.2 || 10.9 || the poverty level || 10.0% || 13.2% || 14.9% ||

In the table above you can see that Cranston isn't that much different than Rhode Island and the Unite States. it is apparent in the chart above that the median household income seems to be higher standing at 58,772 rather than Rhode island standing at 56,102 and even the nation as a whole standing at 53,046. the median family income is even greater as you can its 73,857, and Rhode island isn't much lower it stands at 72,872 but the nation as a whole is a lot lower it stands at 64,585. As seen above Cranston's percentage for all families below poverty level isn't very high which is a good thing, it is 6.6% as Rhode island id higher standing at 9.2% and even the nation as a whole is higher than both Cranston by 4.3% and Rhode Island by 1.7% which is still a wide spread.



Census-based idicators: As you can see in the table above the child population is 16,414 and Rhode Island as a whole has 223,956 children, out of those children there are 26% living in single parent family when only 31% of rhode island kids live in single parent families which is showing in the table that a lot of children in Cranston live in a single parent family.

Conclusion As you read this report you can think you own opinion but Cranston is a average school. Yes, they don't have the highest grades, but they are atleast average and in some subject like math they are above average.Comparing schools to Barrington isn't an easy thing because they are high up there but then comparing it to central falls makes you look like the best school, so it averages it out and I would Say Cranston isn't too far behind Barrington. Hopefully these graphs and grades and poverty charts shows that Cranston is still a good town and has good schooling for your children. If living in Rhode Island i would recommend you to chose Cranston high school East, they are very school spirited and there academic level is good and it prepared you for college.
