Since Ohio swings between blue and red; can you update us on the friendliness in your backyard?

Craigslist has historically blocked 3rd party attempts to improve user friendliness. 4.

For long term investing, they'll generally all tell you to look at most, if not all of the following:  population, population growth, job growth, rent growth, economic diversity, wage growth, new construction rate, vacancy rate, landlord friendliness, and performance during prior recessions. 

Then research facts about them - job growth, population growth, rent growth, vacancy, new construction rate, crime rate, landlord-tenant law friendliness, and so on.

(My renters work in that hub.)Whether all of this will actually pay off is far beyond my ability to guess but based on what I've been watching happen in the neighborhood I've been hesitant to let it go just yet.My hesitation has grown my equity by around 35k over the last year, though I suspect that could soon be erased due to covid.Admittedly this is all speculative but my gut feeling is that this home could appreciate significantly in the coming years.Your point about tenant friendliness is interesting to me and one that I've been reading and thinking about.I have not yet come across any specific laws in California that I felt were difficult to comply with.My home is inside the limits of a smaller city with a deverloper-friendly local government, which is part of the reason for the massive redevelopment of downtown.Admittedly I'm not as informed as I could be on this so if you're aware of specific laws that may become a problem for me in that region please clue me in.

We are not qualified to assess the "friendliness" of a pet.

People move here because the historical votes have been moderate, which has bred a great place to live through reasonable regulation, taxes, business friendliness.

Unless they are using racial or homophobic slurs, I don't think it's worth the brain power to can someone over friendliness.

Sometimes they give me something in return for my friendliness and service throughout the year.

Landlord friendliness is a complex topic.
