A 2018 paper published by Harvard Business School using Yelp, Zillow, and Census data has mathematically shown something we all inherently know: The number of new Starbucks, grocery stores, cafes, bars, and restaurants do have an impact on house prices or the number of college-educated people living in an area (correlation and impact vary by city and variable).The converse also appears to be true.

I definitely count on appreciation (on top of cash flow) here in Milwaukee:- Median home prices have gone up 5-7% every year for the last decade- Home prices have doubled in the last 10 years- Q1 has been up 11%- Milwaukee is the 3rd most competitive market for renters in the US, according to data from Rent Cafe- the catch?

Quote from @John Clark: You any relation to the Zambrano’s cafe on Clark Street near Fullerton about 35 years ago?

Just in the past few years we've seen rapid growth in cafe's, yoga schools, restaurants and amenities operated by younger entrepreneurs. - The smaller more 'luxury' coastal areas such as Bandon, Arch Cape, Manzanita, Florence and Cannon Beach could see dramatic valuation increases as could luxury coastal estates.
