Notes: The table reports similar specifications to those in Column 4 of Table 3 where the coefficient on school distance is interacted with a dummy for the younger age group (7–10 years). Column 1 refers to the entire sample. Column 2 refers to the sample of households with a young (age 7–10) and an old (age 11–14) child. Column 3 refers to the same restricted sample and includes household fixed effects. See also notes to Table 3.
