Time and again many get blinded by the allure of flashy neighborhoods or trendy cities that for a relatively short period on the surface seems like a hot market. But today, "hot markets" like Nashville, Austin and Phoenix, all spots that once held the appeal of affordability years ago, are now fully discovered with a skyrocketing cost of living, overcrowding and crime.
So, finding healthier value in unexpected places takes a lot of research with a boots on the ground, hands on mentality and talking to people in the community. Based on detailed experience over years, for example, we discovered Greater Cleveland, Ohio, founded in 1776 more than 225 years ago, offers a robust high quality of life that's very affordable with excellent school systems, easy to navigate roadways and robust infrastructure.
Suburban towns around the Greater Cleveland area provide high quality work opportunities, an interesting social network of friends and a relaxing life balance with beautiful outdoor parks and hiking trails, that's far better than most other places in America writes J. Dean @SocialContentService.com
