YOUNGSTOWN
Youngstown’s latest inclusion on a list comes from the National Association of Realtors, which ranked the city as the cheapest major housing market.
The median home price is $55,000, nearly $10,000 less than the second-ranked market, Lansing, Mich. ($64,400).
Youngstown was one of four Ohio cities among the 10 most inexpensive. Toledo (third, $64,900), Akron (fifth, $74,900) and Dayton (seventh, $78,000) were also ranked as having some of the nation’s cheapest homes.

Plenty of bargains exist on the SouthSide . If enough get sold the area can once again be populated by the productive . Right now it is an out of control welfare complex .
Is this supposed to be a good thing?
Of course houses are cheap. There are now jobs, no economy to speak of, and no money. The median household income is a joke compared to the rest of the country.
If you dont mind the bodies showing up in the basements of all these abandoned houses, its real cheap., delapitated would be another great word.....
