Can you wholesale in smaller towns?

[Scott S.]

I am new to re and trying to figure out the best path to get started. I am in a rural area but there are a few bigger towns in the 20-50k range a half hour a way or so.
There are a lot of low income families, alot of foreclosures and bankruptcies going on, etc.

I was just wondering if wholesaling works in a environment like this or would it be better to start with something else.
