I have trouble making money because property taxes in non-rural areas of Ohio are really, really high. Mine is close to $6,500. Through property taxes in Franklin County (the county where I live) I have to pay for BS stuff like the zoo (and no, we don't get free admission), alcohol and mental health services, a meals-on-wheels program for old people, children's services, and a bunch of other stupid stuff. And, of course, the schools, and I don't have kids. If not for the high property taxes where I live, it would be profitable. I wish I could live in a community outside of Franklin County, but then my commute would be really tough. Right now, I live only six miles from work. There's an opportunity cost, as they say in economics. Right now, the short commute wins out.

-myfirstyota If you're living in an apartment complex, then yeah, those suck. Ask me how I know. About one third of my car had to be repainted. Wanna know why two doors, a rear quarter panel, the fuel door, and the liftgate had to be repainted? No, it was never in an accident. It's because some idiot keyed my car in 2010 at the apartment complex where I was living. It had carports, not garages, so anyone could mess with your car. I had my suspicions of who did it, but I couldn't prove it because of no video cameras and no witnesses. Luckily, my insurance company covered it under comprehensive coverage. I was only out my $100 deductible. So, yeah, tenants suck.
