5 housing markets on the way up

If you dont have to live in a high cost area such as metropolitan NY and NJ - Conn and Calif you can find even so much more than whats lister here and cheaper.

You got Florida where steals are going on the market in droves every day- NC-SC-GA- upstate NY- the entire Midwest....TX...etc.​... so much in this beautiful country we live in where you can live comfortably and financially unburdened.

Its just up to YOU to find it and make the "tradeoff" that could be necessary and you will be glad you did.

Its going to be this way for a long time so you can even spot your place and plan it out.

As the Nike ad says "just do it"!

Have you ever been to Medford, OR??

"These are places that have better job prospects and stronger economic conditions than most other areas."  HA!

 The housing prices may be low, but the job market is HORRIBLE! It seems like the economy may be improving in the area, but that's not saying much given where it started. There may be "more employers" but they're all big box retail, and who wants to work there? There are literally people with Master's Degrees working at the local Lowe's (I've met them) for crying out loud! I just lived there for a year and the only real employers are the hospitals and Harry & David. Great if you can get a job there, but even HD's turnover rate is really high. There are tons of people on wellfare there because there are no jobs (a stat for you, the unemployment was at 12% last time I checked). And back to the housing, we thought about buying because the prices are so low, but there are no nice neighborhoods. Even the nicest houses have old, broken-down mobile homes next door.

And "regional hub for medical care" well, considering it's the biggest city there is for 5 hours each direction, I would think so, but that doesn't really mean much. I could go on and on. Let's just say, when you read stats, look at what they're really measuring, and what they aren't.
