Downingtown High Schools not inner city
As a Chester County native and former soccer player who competed against Downingtown High School --- back when there was just one --- I must point out that the two current Downingtown high schools are certainly not "inner city schools." Far from it, in fact. Downingtown is a borough, like Manheim and Columbia, and draws students from a huge area covering several townships that surround the borough. Coatesville is the only city in Chester County.
