What makes Columbus Ohio and the surrounding region the hottest real estate market in 2024? I have five good reasons why. 1. Room to grow: Columbus Ohio and its metro has space to grow in all directions as it is not confined by borders like Detroit, Chicago, and New York. 2. Ease to do Business: Columbus has become a major business center for a lot of businesses. In recent years multiple companies have either moved HQs to Columbus, built regional offices, or invested heavily into doing business in Columbus. 3. Affordability: While it is true prices have increased because of inflation, time and time again Columbus has been ranked in the top for affordability of homes. 4. Education: Columbus is home to multiple educational institutes and has become a place for leadership development. Ohio State, Capital, Otterbein, and more offer programs that can help give newcomers the right education. 5. Culture: Columbus has become a major cultural center. The city boasts a lot of areas where people showcase their culture. Columbus is home to major districts like the Arena District and the Short North as well as the many community events the city and region hosts every year.

I keep looking for the part of this announcement that addresses why the area has been so depressed for so long, or the part of the plan that identifies all the minority-specifically Black-contractors, developers, small business owners, etc. who will be included in the planning, design, development, and benefit from this investment. I *love* the idea of spending resources to make Chicago better, and I *love* the idea of *private* investment to do that, because I think it reflects and inspires confidence in the greatness and beauty of our city. But I don't want us to keep taking what minorities have, what people of modest means have, and depressing it on purpose, suffocating it so that it is nearly completely devalued, making it available for wealthy folks to scoop it up, give jobs and lucrative contracts to others while they implement plans that essentially exclude all the people who long waited for infrastructure and investment. That legacy we could do well to end. I hope the folks involved in this project think about that and do better.
