This study predicts which municipalities in South Korea will face many school consolidation cases in the future. In Korean society, the student population is continuously decreasing due to the lowest-low fertility. Numerous local municipalities have seen their schools be merged and closed up to this point. Existing research mainly discusses how to utilize closed schools, but few have attempted to predict where local schools will be merged and closed in the future. This study summarizes the existing discussions on school consolidation and visualizes schools" current geographical distribution in South Korea. With a small-area population projection, the number of student populations (aged 6–17) in 2030 and 2040 is estimated at the municipality level. A correlation analysis is conducted to explain the statistical relationships of decreasing student population and numbers of students and schools. The result suggests that the student population will decrease in most cities and rural counties. The regions with large student populations, accordingly having a high potential of decreasing student population, will encounter many school consolidation cases. This study implies that hollowing out of the local education system, accompanied by school consolidation, will occur even in the metropolitan areas, including Seoul, the capital city of South Korea.
