With that said, I would recommend looking at the beaches, Riverside, Springfield and Murray Hill.  

We've been having a lot of difficulty with a section 8 tenant that was already living in the property we acquired less than a year ago. We have done our best to remediate issues but the place is filthy and occupied by...

We own a few properties in Coralville and Riverside. 

I would recommend you consult a Mobile home specialist, my contractor has been working in the Riverside, San Bernardino area for years and has completed hundreds of rehab.  

I would highly appreciate it if you could give your opinion on the next neighborhoods or suggest other area you think is more appropriate:Eagledale, River side park area, Mapleton-Fall Creek, Windsor Park, Garfield Park, Little Flower, Irvington, Beech Grove. 

Big employers include The Limited (Victoria's Secret, Bath & Body), Nationwide Insurance HQ, Worthington Industries, Honda of America, State Farm, MANY others including a fast growing TEHNOLOGY hub that is attracting millennials, and Capital Unviersity, Ohio State, DeVry, Franklin University, Otterbein College, Columbus College of Art Design, PLUS medical OSU Hospital and James Cancer Center, Riverside Methodist Hospital, St.Anne's Hospital, Grant Hospital, etc. 

You're in Riverside? 

I hear great things, from a cash flow standpoint, about investing in the smaller, outlying towns from major Texas cities, and I think the same is true for CA, if you go deep into San Bernardino or Riverside counties.One concern I do have, and I think you alluded to, is the concentration of one industry in a metropolitan area.
