Best rental markets vs. population growth
Last night, I decided to put together a look at RealtyTrac's 'Best Rental' markets vs. population growth.
Using US Census data, I was able to see the 5 markets in the 'Best Return' list that have had the highest population growth since 2010. Here they are in order of adjusted return:
Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, GA (29.76%)
Kansas City (22.4%)
Pittsburgh (21.08%)
Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater (21.02%)
Ithaca, NY (19.32%)
It's also nice to know that the list seems a bit more sane when you look at it this way. I would consider myself lucky to live in any of these 5 markets.
