Coshocton is a high Amish population county. 5/3 sucks (worked for them).

I’ve gotten caught up in reading this morning about these , every 20 years the Amish population doubles! Sit on that thought...

And all you guys that don't have Amish now, give it time, they'll infiltrate your area

I’d be hesitant to buy land without at least part of the mineral rights. I’ve heard stories of those minerals being developed and the landowner getting minimal compensation for surface alterations. Also I wouldn’t buy land without road frontage.

Don’t assume the neighborhood won’t change after you buy. Neighboring lands might be subdivided, woods cleared for farming etc. Try to picture what you’ll have if that happens, will it still work for what you want?

no conveyance of mineral rights is probably a deal breaker for me no matter what, and for the reasons you stated. I'm likely going to wind up buying in a place secluded enough that development should not be a worry for me in this lifetime. nobody knows what can happen, but I'm looking to dodge development around me wherever I buy.

Really hard to buy property with mineral rights anymore. Very very expensive if you do. At least if you are in the Marcellus Region.

The price difference in SE Ohio is $2k vs $12k; wit or without.

Yep that is pretty much the differences that I noticed as well.

I bought 23.5 acres in Coshocton, County 10 years ago for hunting at just less than $1900 per acre. My cousin has 100 acres butted to one side which made is worth more to me. Mostly big ditches with a creek and multi-floure
rose but, some day it will have some nice timber (15 years?).

The county re-appraised anything considered farm ground to $5000 per acre and doubled my property tax. Probably due to shale oil (never see it where I am) and Amish.

Don’t plan to outbid Amish for property unless you have lots of spare cash.
