The midwest is a great place to get started, I invest locally here in Columbus, OH and have a lot of friends with similar success here. 

I'm trying to compare areas by how diversify their economy so I'm looking at the BLS data report for Columbus OH and I see the numbers are a bit off:The Civilian labor force is 1,120.7 while the Total Nonfarm jobs are 1,157.1 (36k difference).As much as I understand Civilian labor force is the total potential force and Total Nonfarm is a percentage of the Civilian labor force.Am I wrong?

I'm moving to Columbus, OH next year and am thinking about my options.

Columbus, Ohio is a hot market for out of state investors. 

I have had a lot of partnerships here in Columbus.

Hey @Jeff Johnson, we were wondering if you were able to find a PM to work within Ohio.According to my agent, Columbus is likely saturated and the growth will gradually spread out to  Springfield. 

Hey Remington, do those numbers overlap in the Columbus market as well? 

The cash flow is a bit lower with 1% rules in C class neighborhoods but it’s hard to find 1% rules in A/B now.Dayton, Cleveland, and Cincinnati are similar markets with lower price entry points and higher rent to price ratios.There’s also sub markets around Columbus that allow you to invest and ride the Columbus wave without paying the Columbus prices such as Newark, Lancaster, Marysville, etc.
