The decline in dayton parochial schools is directly related to the decline of blue collar jobs, Frigidaire Delco NCR and the like. Population dropped nearly in half. Wil take years to recover.
That said growth between cincy and dayton is making the metro area closer to DFW type area.
Interesting just how many cincy athletes choose UD over X or UC. Malloy from Middletown Hoover from Springboro and Austria from Kettering all stated how they were excited to play for their hometown university. All chose UD over X and UC.
UD enrollment seems to grow each year. Dayton area can still grow in all directions whereas cincy is locked in on south side.
