District 25 stretches across a diverse group of communities in north central Queens, from Flushing's densely populated Chinatown to the more quiet suburban neighborhoods of Whitestone and College Point. It is home to many high achieving elementary and middle schools, and like almost every other district in Queens, has, in recent years, experienced a large of influx of immigrant families from Latin America and Asia. Historically there has been very limited school choice in the district but in recent years several unzoned middle and secondary schools have opened including Bell Academy, East-West School of International Studies and the Queens School of Inquiry. The highly selective Townsend Harris High School is situated on the campus of Queens College.
