If it’s a stable population with good roads, restaurants, schools, hospitals, etc…it’s very likely there is low turnover due to high tenant retention rate.

Nice view, walking distance to bus, schools, shopping.

I'm a business school professor and teach business analytics and quantitative methods. 

And help or suggestions would be appreciated. thanksI'm pretty new to real estate investing, but I did find a decent website that was helpful: www.NearbyEstates.comOne thing that I really like is that they have an interactive map which shows the nice neighborhoods and ghettos, as well as top companies and schools.

I know much of the information from BP is free in terms of blog posts, podcast, YT videos and forum but I'm old school and like a comprehensive book I can crack open.

No kids for school, and no university students.
