Here is a small Christian Based community that has had it's share of economic woes. This town used to be called the Balloon Capital of the USA and had low unemployment. Then the "I can make more money outside this country" took hold and all was lost. The labor cost is low here and taxes are at average or just a hair below national average. The residents of this community are good people and willing to assist most who are in need. Great Fire and Police departments and Ashland is located between Three major cities...Cleveland, Columbus and Akron. With a major highway I71 and Rt 250, this should be a real positive for most companies looking to expand.
The educational system is gradually improving and in my opinion, will be one of the best school systems in at least this state of not ranked in the top in the country.
I would like to see industry leaders, start up companies and green developers take a closer look at the possibilities this community has to offer. Most hidden treasures are right below our feet. All we need to do is dig a little and enjoy the rewards uncovered.
Send me a note and just maybe I can assist you in learning more about Ashland, Ohio

Man pays $16 to take over $330,000 house
Man pays $16 to take over $330,000 house
The neighbors are outraged, but the Texas resident says his takeover is legal and will eventually give him title to the suburban Dallas home.
We all dream of scoring a great deal on a house.
But a $330,000 house for $16?
"This is not a normal process, but it is not a process that is not known," he told WFAA-TV in Dallas. "It's just not known to everybody."
Robinson said he invested months in research to find the house. The property had been in foreclosure for more than a year, and the owner walked away. In the meantime, the lender that held the mortgage went out of business.
I would rather see this guy get this house that the state collecting revenue on this property.
