Salem County New Jersey investing in rental properties

[Jimmy Boyle]

Hey guys,

I'm new to bigger pockets and was wondering if it's worth investing in rental properties is Salem County, NJ? This is where I live so I was thinking it'd be a good place to start. 

My only problem is that I work in the construction industry in Delaware and I notice that droves of people from NJ are leaving the state because of taxes. While my investment may work out in the short term, I'm worried that in the long run people will continue to leave the state and my investment's value will go down. 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Jimmy
