There are a ton of districts in the 55%-64% range, but I chose 65% as the baseline.

Some observations:
2 big city districts made the cut: Seattle and DC

Many states have school districts divided by county, which makes Fairfield County all the more impressive because that is a geography with over 1 million people.

Otherwise, not too many surprises.

Also, I did High School districts and Unified districts, didn't include elementary districts.
