Median home values are $170K range, Median rental income $1,275, YoY home value growth 7%, YoY rent growth 7.93%, Rent/price ratio .74%, Population 117K.I also have my eyes on Watertown, NY; Warren Robins, GA; Gulfport, MS; Knoxville, TN, Rocky Mount, NC & parts of OK.There are plenty of options out there --- hope you find something that fits your buy box!
