‘Surge Cities’ Nashville, Jacksonville, Atlanta Among The Best Cities For Entrepreneurs

Nashville, Jacksonville and Atlanta are among the best cities in which to start a business, according to the Winter edition of Inc. Magazine which published a list of the 50 best “surge cities.” Surge cities are metros that are considered startup-friendly. In other words, these are great cities for entrepreneurs. The analysis examined high-growth company density within each city, the rate of entrepreneurship in the city, the city’s population growth, the city’s net business creation, the city’s wage growth, job creation statistics for the city, and early-stage fundraising deals offered to entrepreneurs in the area.

The analysis claims that in order for startups to thrive, it must be a growing city, it must have ample opportunities and it has to be innovative. These are clearly also traits that show a great place for real estate investors to consider, whether the investor flips houses or buys rental units. Either way, these traits among municipalities are advantageous to both entrepreneurs building startups and real estate investors.

• Growing cities with steady increases in population, job creation, and business creation are great places in which to invest.
• Entrepreneurship growth within a city demonstrates promising opportunity.
• Wage increases indicate higher spending power in the months and years ahead.
• Ample high-growth companies within a region demonstrates innovation and forward thinking.
