Flooring preferences in Columbus

[Sonam Gill]

I am currently in the middle of a full rehab of a duplex in Southern Orchards, and my contractor(Ohio Native) recommended that I should stick to vinyl planks throughout the home, except for the bedrooms which should be carpeted.  He mentioned that because of the cold winters in Columbus, people prefer carpeting in bedrooms.  

In terms of long term maintenance I was thinking it made sense to stick with vinyl planks throughout the property, and if tenants prefer carpeting they can bring in a rug. I am starting up another rehab this fall for a 4-unit building in Milo-Grogan, and would like to educate myself on local preferences before finalizing the materials selection this time around.  Any opinions or experience would be helpful! Thanks!
