Greetings everyone!

I've come across a challenge and attempted to address it using both ArcGIS Desktop and QGIS. I have point data representing schools and villages, with multiple buffers created around the villages. My goal is to ascertain the count of schools within each buffer ring independently, shedding light on the number of schools situated within each distinct buffer ring.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated!

Warm Regards,

R

Just forget the buffers - use https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/analysis/near.htm

You can join the tables after using nearFID - giving you the closest village name.
