My triplex building consists of 2 2bedroom apartments (one currently rented) and a 4 bedroom furnished unit (all rented to professional people) which I rent by the room in Philadelphia Pa. center city university city area. 

One of my properties is located next to an army base center so I get a lot of military families Who are excellent at keeping the place spotless.2. 

For instance if someone asked me to define what I'm looking for in a neighborhood to invest in I'd say, areas where median household income is at least 50k, median home value over 140k, median rents of at least $1000 for all bed/bath counts, easy access to city center via public transportation, and at least one walkable main street area in vicinity. 

Not including the 1,000 jobs planned for its forthcoming Pflugerville fulfillment center, Amazon currently has more than 11,000 direct employees in the Austin area.

Real Estate Investing is a proven path to accumulating and maintaining wealth in which we all can prosper and in turn enrich the lives of others.In responding to @Dave Spooner, you centered the advice upon an individual's goals. 

I invest in the Blair/Center County area for now. 

Got a fix and flip loan through Center Street Lending.

Anyone here ever invested in data centers or other alternative assets?

It seems like single family home prices are holding up and rising around NYC and other urban centers as people flee due to COVID.

Population is rapidly increasing, job growth is rapidly increasing, relative to other major population centers property values in Texas are competitive and lastly as the Baby Boom Generation is on the door step of retirement many northern Boomers are flocking to warmer weather climates and to states that have relatively low taxation.
