Hi Tony,
I’m in the Suburb City of El Cajon Ca, just outside of San Diego.
I think you guys have a good target area of Findley, Lima, and Wood County.
Looking at my facts here I’m seeing:
Wood County
113,269 (population)
6,076 (employed in the manufacturing/repair industry) 10.91% of the Occupation market
8,911 (Machine/operators/labors) 15.99% of the O.M.
Dominant industries are manufacturing (20.75%) and the Service field (36.50%)
Findlay
48,159 (population)
3,400 (in the Service field of occupation) 14.23%
2,816 (Manufacturing/repair) 11.78%
4,436 (Machine operators/labors) 18.75%
$48,400 Median Home Value
Dominate industries include 5.55% (Construction), 23.14% (manufacturing), 30.05% (Service)
Lima
79,312 (population)
5,446 (Service field of total occupation) 16.87%
4,040 (Manufacturing/repair field of Occupation) 12.51%
6,515 (Machine operators/labors field of Occupation) 20.17%
$52,353 Medium Home Value
Dominant Industries include (Service) 28.02%, (Manufacturing) 24.75%, and (Construction) 6.51%
Anyhow that is what I’m turning up. Basically though, I see a good potential segment of the population, which maybe attracted to Lonnie Type deals. I would of course check on what 2bed room apartments are running for in your area, to give you a good playing field of where you want these peoples housing expenses to be.
Anyhow Good luck,
Dirk Roach
