They both share a history of having started during western expansion, and evolved from mining/railroad/transportation hub towns to ranching/agriculture to energy. 

If you calculate just college student debt, getting married, having kids, buying cars for transportation, health insurance, having a house, food, clothing, etc. the system is designed for the public to make just enough to survive to live another day.

Ease of transport.

Not all the foreclosures and bankruptcies were sub-prime mortgages.And the inflation started in 2006 with gas prices rising, just like in 2021, with gas prices rising, and driving up inflation on everything with increased transportation costs.The price of cars and trucks is skyrocketing, because car manufacturers are losing money on EVs and raising prices on gas and diesel powered vehicles to make up the difference.

I have a background in freight transportation as well and actually lived in Toledo for a short time.

My conservative estimate with labor and transportation time was about 5 hours.

Then short black rock, vanguard and open door.Create and develop land of tiny homes (<330sqft) instead of your typical ugly suburban McMansions.Create a high rise tiny condos in the city where you can walk to work or use public transportation (<330sqft).

@Kyler J Sloan also if you buy use your will prob have to transport it which is not that easy with hot tubs. 

Call the Department of Transportation (DOT) and explain the situation.

My main concern in today's real estate market is the potential impact of changing transportation infrastructure, such as subway expansions or changes, on property values.
