Which town/city?

I'm also new to investing and focused on multi-family in the Twin cities.

I am a Kansas City (Missouri) native looking to build relationships with investor friendly agents for comps.  

As for Cummins future in Columbus, Cummins made a commitment to Columbus a few years back that they would be keeping their headquarters here - investing around $50 million into the city (http://indy.st/2uxRaOw)If you have any other specific questions about Columbus or my experiences over the last three years, let me know and I’d be more than willing to help out!

I personally prefer a multi employer city.

According to this site https://www.area-codes.com/city/city.asp?

Or you may be referring to local incentives (usually state or city based grants = free money) for communities that need people to buy primary residence in order to stabilize the town.

City websites and websites such as https://www.niche.com/places-to-live/search/safest...Do you happen to have any rule of thumb ?

@Jason Ma  All of San Antonio City is inside Bexar County. 

@Donna Welschmeyer Waco is an interesting city.
