For question #1, correct?

And btw, New Orleans is not on the list.  Fortunately, there is nobody from Louisiana on here or they might get upset you thinking Baton Rouge and New Orleans are the same.🙂

Ah, well if New Orleans is not to be combined with BR, replace them with Dallas in my list.

Just to clarify, the 2 questions above pertain to 4 and 5-star high school seniors graduating at the end of this year.  

 

Oh, well, in just one year, it could be quite different from what we see over the long run.

Interesting you went with Baton Rouge rather than New Orleans, though maybe they are combined. 

Without looking it up, I'd say Miami-FL; L.A.;  Houston; NoLa/BR and Atlanta. For sure Baton Rouge will be at the top in per capita, but it's also the smallest city here. 

BR and NO are considered separate metro areas.  BR for sure?  maybe, or maybe not🙂

badrouter got all 5 for question #1, but not in the right order.  His order is below.  

1. Miami

2. LA

3. Houston

4. Dallas

5. Atlanta

Let's see if someone can get the right order.  Several different people have put Miami metro as #1.  It is not.  In fact, it's not even close.    

2 of the metro areas listed above are also amongst the 5 metro areas for question #2.

Sheer quantity it's probably L.A. and Houston at the top. Miami has the edge per capita on those, but I know some places in the South (LA., MS) have them beat per capita.

Is this OldSchoolLion?

That's some great logic and you are on the right track.  BTW-I've heard so many people over the years about where the best talent is, I thought it would be fun to put some numbers behind it.  Not sure who/what that is.
