Since the early 1990s, metropolitan entities and local governments have targeted incentives, policies, and investments with the goal of highly educated and skilled workers to locate in their communities. These efforts focus on attracting workers who hold a bachelor's degree or higher and have had a profound effect on the form and management of metropolitan areas, but there is not clear evidence that growth in bachelor's or higher degree attainment improves labor market outcomes. I use an outcomes-based cluster-discriminant analysis (modified from the Hill-Brennan cluster-discriminant method) to test whether or not metropolitan areas with above national average growth in bachelor's or higher degree (BA+) attainment from 1990-2010 experienced growth in earnings per job growth, reductions in the metropolitan unemployment rate, reductions in the metropolitan poverty rate, and lower-than-average income inequality growth. I find that increased BA+ attainment leads to two distinct set of labor market outcomes - one in which earnings per job increases, but inequality grows, and unemployment and poverty rates rise, the other in which income inequality growth is low and unemployment and poverty rates decline, but earnings per job are stagnant or negative. I find evidence that "educational segregation," restrictive land use policies, crime, and changes in military employment all play roles in determining whether a metropolitan area falls into the "High Growth, Increasing Inequality" or "Low Growth Increasing Equality" group. The findings suggest policies that promote integrated residential communities and that create opportunities for mixing between BA+ holders and non-holders. The work also suggests that the individual benefits of educational attainment do not translate directly to places.
