I would definitely buy on Five Mile at the right price (especially if flipping is your thing), but would be extremely cautious about it being over-inflated, as there is so much building going on up there, and at some point, people are going to get tired of getting stuck in traffic every time they drive to work or go grocery shopping.There is also Airway Heights, which is west of town along Highway 2, out by Fairchild Air force Base and Spokane International Airport.

Expect all locations of the California DMV to be as crowded and as foul smelling as the Southwest AirlinesTerminal at Los Angeles International Airport.

Hola Carlos, I'm also new to BP (awesome site), and I'm at the border of Windsor Locks and Windsor (by the Airport) pretty close to you.

We have NEVER been to BOSTON.We got off the airport, and drove towards LONGWOOD MEDICAL area.  

I'm an air traffic controller at the local airport and have about $30K in my TSP account.

It's so close to downtown, the airport, still affordable and has a lot of green space.

I chose Atlanta because it is the international transportation hub of the south east having the busiest airport in USIt has a diverse economy with many Fortune 500 companies setting up offices therefriends and family that moved down theremet some investors that were from NY that invested down theregood size populationaverage salary is high enough to pay me rent and rent is decent enough for me to make a profitprice it is way cheaper than NYC

I traveled there for the first time last summer and I have my old Penn State Univ. roommate who now lives down there and is working for one of the airports.

They profit from the bid-ask spread (think about exchanging currency in an airport) and from the aggregate of investor behavior with respect to market cycles (when a market is at its peak investors tends to buy; when a market is at its low investors tends to sell).
