If your not managing properties this will not apply but if you are, it is "the" communication hub for tenants and vendors if properly utilized. 

These include Abott labs, Honda, Facebook, Amazon, JP Morgan Chase, Nationwide, Root Insurance.....The list goes on. 2) Logistically you can get to, I think its 80ish% (don't quote me on that number), of the continental US within a 12 hour drive of Columbus, so it will remain a logistical hub. 3) Then there is also Ohio State or "THE" Ohio State as all the natives like to correct you...so that is an economic driver for sure.From a REI point of view I really like that the cost of either a Single Family home in the burbs, or a duplex 5 mins outside downtown is attainable, even for a "normal person" with a day job.

That said, does anyone have insight on what areas are the industrial hubs? 

Northrop Grumman just announced they are planning to stay in Jax for years to come and Amazon is building an Amazon Hub close to Ortega Farms/Confederate Pointe. 

The gateway is just a hub that all the locks connect to.

Alabama and Tennessee still offer some good value and I believe the hubs that have commitments from very large manufacturers to invest will remain strong rental markets, even if we get a recession for the next 18 months.

That's the stuff of 'real estate porn.'  

Easy, doesn't fail and everyone understand it.We have a Schlage Encode lock connected to a Z Wave hub for WiFi.

From my research, Anderson is not the hub of industry.

Great suggestion - the property is located near the university hospital, a major jobs hub, so it would be attractive for a market tenant.
