Is Dayton a good place to invest i for rentals in 2023?

[Tyler McComb]

Hi guys, 

Im looking at a few properties in Dayton and are just unsure of the area and would like some insight from anyone who is from there or also invests there... I live in Ohio but am about 1.5 hours North of the city. 

The specific area I am looking at is west of the river (Ive been told is bad), one of the streets off of riverside Dr. Would you guys with knowledge of the area say this place is getting better (I noticed some houses being rehabbed) or should I stay away all together? 

Any insight would be great! TIA
