The most valuable takeaway for others though are probably the data sources that I found while putting this together :American Fact Finder - This was a great resource, you mix & match different demographic, economic and geographic data tablesCity Data - Pretty well known, contains a variety of information on different cities, used for crime statisticsHUD Fair Market RentsUnemployment StatisticsCensus Bureau Quick FactsAdditional Census Bureau ResourcesIt took me a while to figure out where I could find good, reliable data, so hopefully this list helps someone else who's unsure of where to look. 

Only a matter of time til these guys have an episode of American Greed on cnbc.

@Anthony Butler BP is a great resource but most of the information is American-centric as this is an American site.

You should also check with your Attorney on what might have to be done to comply with ADA (Americans with Disability Act) to determine if you have to upgrade any of the entrances, bathrooms, etc.On your question on the water use, if you get records going back to when there was a daycare operating they may show the difference in average water use before and then after the daycare closed.-

Returns that are guaranteed always get paid on American Greed, until of course they don't and the whole thing comes crashing down and the victims lose their capitol.

All of these companies (and several others like The Michaels Organization, NFI, American Water, Lockheed) already existed in the south jersey area...so there isn't any new job growth causing for Oaklyn/Bellmawr to grow any more than they already were.

I am not looking for a mind blowing deal - I know they are not easy to get and I don't want to bide my time waiting for one to magically appear especially as someone not in any secret society.

I just read that 40% of Americans cannot cover a $400 unplanned expense.

Use the "Americans Investing Internationally" forum.

The average American is also tapped out on their credit cards.
