All of this makes Huntsville/Madison County the #10 Hottest US Rental Markets.Local employers with 1000+ employees (in descending order).US Army, Huntsville Hospital, NASA, Huntsville City Schools, Boeing, Dynetics, SAIC, Madison County Schools, City of Huntsville, Northrop Grumman, University of Alabama in Huntsville, ADTRAN, Polaris, Toyota, Hexagon, Alabama A&M University, Crestwood Medical Center, Madison County Commission, Science and Engineering Services (SES), Madison City Schools, AT&T Alabama

W/D would be relocated here.My reasoning is that while three bedrooms may be more popular, more occupants/strain the septic system, and not having to descend into a basement to do laundry may attract better tenants who really don't need the third bedroom.I realize three bedrooms typically bring more rent, but with a 3 bed 1 bath having the laundry in the basement, I'm not seeing it attracting the best tenants.I'm at the top of the rent range for this home/neighborhood ($795 central Illinois) and am faced with trying to attract better long term tenants, or continuing to rent to short term people who are using it as a stepping stone.I want to make it a better value for potential tenants so that rent increases are justified.

Collinwood is within Cleveland so you get Cleveland police, fire, and snow plows.

I am planning on working for the local police department which doesn't pay the best at first but progressively gets better relatively quickly.
