We use less water than when our population was half of today. 

As someone who works in Investor Relations at a syndicator the questions I get these days are related to debt, hearing our companies history/track record, and asking questions about why the market we are buying in is the right one (questions about cap rates, population growth, job growth etc) 

Hello so I have a single family home that I have done a rehab on and the area is heavily populated with Spanish speaking families and I am not fluent in Spanish and my question is “do I have to supply a Spanish lease?”

I use spreadsheets and Propstream, Redfin, economic indicators and shifts, population growth, companies/industries coming into an area to make my decisions.

Not to start an argument, but just realize that there is the one point of view that the US financial credit system, especially after the '07-'08 crash, basically disenfranchising a whole swath of the population. 

One area that you didn't mention is East Lansing, which is highly regulated in terms of rentals due to the student population and that rental market. 

Looks like this is on the border of some growth but keep in mind that Cleveland cash flows well because the population in a lot of places is declining. 

Any population growth?

In my research phase I have found that the overall population has declined by 11% since 2010.

There is a only small percentage of the population that has $10k per month cash flow from real estate.
