Also many who end up taking these loans don't have reliable access to transportation, making shopping around logistically difficult.

A few companies do, including Uber. The real issue is that the American banking system is insanely slow and outdated so transferring large sums rarely is way more economical than d…

Cleveland is fine if you are reasonably well off. Like many run down urban areas it is currently going through a substantial revival (driven mostly by "hipsters" opening vegan rest…

I second Troy (I hate Albany but that is personal preference). They are also reasonably safe considering how improvised they have been in recent times. Prices in Troy are already s…
