Great schools are nearby as well.

I am an 18 year old in High school and I live in the Bay Area.

With all the capital trying to get into multifamily right now, your best bet is to pick markets with the best fundamentals (population growth, job growth, schools, infrastructure, etc.)

I don't know the market at all, but you can start by looking for highly-ranked public schools.

How are the local schools?

You keep learning and graduate from apprentice level to journeyman level (in German "Geselle").

Moreover, before receiving your real estate license (In Georgia), there are some general qualifications you must meet which I’ll list below:1.You must be 18 years old or older.2.You must be a Georgia resident unless you’re applying for a non- resident license.3.You must be of good and honest character, in other words not convicted of any felony or crime and not have violated any fair housing laws.4.You must be a high school graduate or hold a certificate of equivalency.If you meet the above general requirements you are safe to move on to the next step which is the application process to your pre-licensing course.

So, it's either RE investing or going to truck driver training school at 50+ because I hear they can make pretty good money. 

(Have to finish an internship to graduate with a degree I'll never use).

Montgomery County, Fairfax County and Arlington County are where the primo schools are.
