Are jobs coming to the area or is population declining.

I’ve analyzed the hell out of properties, all over the country, in my backyard, a neighboring state, places where thearea is listed as one of the fastest growing populations in the country, and numerous others.

What that means is, the more expensive you move up in price, the smaller amount of the population can afford those higher price points.

Based on population growth, job growth/stability, and declining crime.

The issue is it is likely to be at 45 minutes from "the city". ( Small city so, here 15-20 minute commute would be average )It is close to a lake, which may help attract the older population to it or stational ( vacation rentals?

I’m hopeful that some version of this will go through as it could be a great value-add for owners as well as contribute to more housing for the massive population influx Portland is expected to receive in the next 20 years.The next scheduled portion is a Feb. 12th meeting on the proposals (I don’t think open to the public) with it being sent back to the council for review and public comment sometime in March.

@Ronnie VajdakI did the typical research, looked at prices, taxes, laws,  population & job growths..

Except that that county is in the middle of nowhere and has lost almost 10% of its sub 10k population since 2010.

Buy in an area with low crime and historically stable population and job growth 4.

Nearest town larger than us is 45 miles away with about 25k population, other than that there is no big city within 200 miles.
