NC use to be the furniture capital of the world and Caldwell County is where a lot of the manufacturers where based.

It will be fine, there's a big financial, medical, business and manufacturing sector that operates outside of O&G. 

Amazon is opening a new distribution center, the Air Force Base is expanding bringing in more jobs and the service members family members, there's even talks of Boeing opening a manufacturing plant here. 

I love this market because as has been mentioned here the fundamentals are strong, by which I mean there's a diverse economy characterized by durable industries including tech, healthcare, manufacturing, distribution, etc, there's population growth with young professionals moving into the city, the cities are walkable and well planned, there aren't natural disasters such as hurricanes, fires, earthquakes, etc, to worry about, and the quality of life is generally high.

Industrial is probably next or even tied with multifamily (think distribution centers and manufacturing). 

The HUD Mortgagee Letter issued new guidelines for manufactured housing that included eligibility for manufactured homes in condominium projects.

This population growth creates consistent demand for housing, making real estate a stable investment.Diverse Economy: The city boasts a diverse economy with thriving industries like healthcare, technology, military, tourism, and manufacturing.

@John Moorhouse my company doesn't hire people without college degrees for any job but manufacturing assembly.

One of our shirt tail relatives is the largest manufactured housing dealer in the area, and knows what's available for sale too.

Due to they stop manufacturing R-22 equipment like 5 years ago.
