Does anyone know the racial and social demographics of the area that today's shootings took place in?

Bowie is mostly white (compared to the rest of the county) and mostly upper-middle class to lower-rich class. Most of the Republican support in the county comes from Bowie. Lots of nice places to go in the city, low crime, $400,000 houses. Tasker is one of two middle schools in the city. The city has no police force, and relies on the county. Bowie, and this part in particular, is the richest area in the county. In recent years the MD 197/US 50 interchange has been heavily developed.
Annapolis and DC are about 20 minutes away in opposite directions, alond US 50. US 301/MD 3 is about .5 miles away, and MD 3 turns into I-97 about 4 miles north of the school. Baltimore is 30 minutes to the north by 3/97. The county seat is 15 minutes to the south.
