I fought my ex on this and ended up with roughly a 60/40 physical custody arrangement, and shared legal custody. When I was shopping for post-divorce housing, I only looked at homes/apartments in the same school district - actually, I limited it to homes within the boundaries of the same grade school. I ended up buying a home across the street from my kids' elementary school.
She tried to pull that "every other weekend" crap on me and I shut her down. I made it my priority to get as close to equal time as I could. Of course, one of the driving forces behind that priority was my belief that she was mentally unfit to be a full-time parent, but, because it was something I knew I couldn't prove with sufficient evidence to the court, I settled for the 60/40 split.
