These two cities, both within Continental Title Company’s service areas, have secured the fifth and ninth spots in a realtor.com® report titled “Top Markets for Recent College Graduates.”

Here’s why these cities might be the perfect fit for you:

  • Affordable Housing:  Cities were evaluated based on rent-to-income ratios to ensure that rent doesn’t consume all your hard-earned cash.
