WS currently has many road projects and studies actively open, including MLK Dr, Peace Haven connectors, a recently updated transportation comprehensive plan, and a project to make Winston-Salem a 100% walkable city.

@Pal SaIn my investigations, I visit the employer, look at the transportation, and look at the current residence.

I believe that the proximity of Hagerstown to the crossroads of I81 and I70 provide decent jobs in the transportation and warehousing industries.

Otherwise it makes a lot more sense to go the traditional route because the cost would come down about the same if not cheaper for the ground up, mainly due to high transportation cost...

I’m in the transportation business also , so I’m always around Georgia , all through the week.

Hi Carnet,I live in a competitive market and fast growing economy luckily.But I've been analyzing and doing offers out of state on a particular set of statistics that I see happening.From Boston west, there are minimal multiplexes/rentals- there are high end towns- so i looked on the outskirts of these primarily single family towns and saw massive growth- from there I tied back public transportation and local amenities. two places could be the same distance from Boston and border a high end residential town but not have its own public transit tied to Boston and differ significantly.Another tip is watching the big developers.
