In an analysis by the Washington Post's Andrew Van Dam, the claim that Astoria, Oregon, is the 'single-parent capital of America' is debunked.

Instead, it has established a stable existence, even though it has not flourished as other cities on the West Coast. The article cleverly intertwines movie references with demographic data to present a humorous yet informative perspective.
Astoria, while charming and storied, does not actually claim the title of 'single-parent capital of America' as depicted in the film 'Kindergarten Cop.'
