Middletown

They Ayrshire Neighborhood on the east end of Middltetown at the corner of 122 & Dixie Hwy. where I live is pretty nice. I always see people and kids outside doing thing. The only major down side is the roads, sidewalks, and there are a few forecloses. But other than that it is a pretty quiet neighborhood.

Come on bill--don't get wimpy on us when u r questioned
We r often baited and played with by detractors trying to downplay this site.
So-- the skepticism and suspicion is often warranted.
Come on down Wed. Evening for a top band @ the broad st.bash
I will meet you, show you around and introduce to my acquaintances from both sides of the fence and tracks(excuse me for having friends in this town mr.S-- can h stick to one screen name? And could u put all of yer pathetically pithy roundabout shots @ me in one particular heading? Lol)

U won't b disappointed

Billiam = greygoose?

Billiam, spoken like an individual who knows nothing about evaluating nor opening a sole proprietorship. Even a single owner entity should be evaluated by market and financial analysis. Why....you may even quality for incubator status and acceleration consulting from Cincinnati State and some seed money as sj indicated, from the deep federal pockets in Donham.

Here's a another consideration for you pal. AK Steel has trended for a year between 4.00 and 3.00/ share. Read the analysts ratings. If t were to be sold, what would that do to your investment? Go down and seek some help from the C State staff.

Glad you are staying in NKY, you might want to check out Lexington, as that area is growing rapidly. Of course, you may be a contractor looking for an opportunity to restore a building downtown. They usually sell for about $1.00, or given away. You have two markets to cater: those selling gold teeth, gold watches, etc., or the other segment which is buying crab cakes and monte cristo sandwiches @ Stained. Chose your market segment wisely.

Cheer for the Wildcats down at UK, from your NKY perch, not much to cheer in Detroit No. @, ergo, Middletown. I am certain Larry Mulligan would be happy to take you on a 4 hour tour when you make your soourn for further evaluation. As the roads are pretty rough, you may want to look over the city in a helicopter.       

Mike I really hate putting  "negativism"on ya but the realism", or "facing the FACTS"!!! is, your stuck.....we took a loss 7 years ago selling our home, not real bad but didn't care, and when it sold we left mid town at break-neck speed and didn't get a speeding ticket  

Oh, Billiam, just a couple more things:

unfortunately a lot of truth in what axclaro is saying... just look at how the city may be blocking musa admin from the city's(citizens') web site

depends on exactly what you want to do here, bill---

The numbers are not promising nor accurate. Indeed, when the CEO was shaking Middletown down to keep the Atrium hospital within the annexed area of Franklin, he said the Atrium would see 10,000 new jobs or its campus. That hasn't been within 99% accurate of forecast. Investment capital means nothing; and the two largest outputs were existing businesses or jv's of existing businesses as defined. As for projection, perhaps you are a clinical psychologist looking for space? Anyone whom bought within the past 20-25 years owning a house, would sell it below what they paid two decades ago. A friend is a President of one of Trenton's most illustrious businesses besides Coors; they sold their home at a $225,000. capital loss to build in West Chester.

Its corrupt in my opinion, terribly run, and filled with cronyism. The job article as a cheerleader you truly are, is from SunCoke associated with a jv with AK Steel, an existing business for over 100 years, and the Atrium Med Ctr, an existing hospital that moved out of Dodge to gain benefit from Warren Cty where it sits. Take a drive downtown and Breihel Blvd if you want to see what's moving in vs what is moving out. The phantom cheerleader garbage is amateur hour. Only a spin doc would not see through the dumb article you reference. Go take a peek at the tax revenue declining. That is your answer, or it would be mine, if I was pushing cap investment in the city. Of course, I wouldn't. Due diligence shows you'd lose your shirt.

Is this a weekly crime report or did all of these events occur over a single 24 hour period?  If they happened over three days or more then I would say it seems about average for a city of about 50,000 people anywhere.
