Gahanna, Ohio: The Emerging Tech Epicenter

For the second consecutive year, Gahanna, Ohio, has claimed the title of America’s hottest ZIP code, and it’s not where you might expect. Nestled in the heart of the Midwest, this unassuming town of 35,000 residents is drawing parallels to the tech mecca of Palo Alto, California. How did Gahanna become a pivotal player in Ohio’s tech landscape? Let’s explore.

Tech Giants on the Horizon

Gahanna owes its rising prominence to its strategic location. Just 10 miles away lies Google’s data center in New Albany, Ohio, while Intel is investing a staggering $28 billion in new microchip factories spanning nearly 1,000 acres, just 30 miles away in New Albany, Licking County. As Palo Alto attracted tech companies and talent due to its innovative environment, Gahanna is poised to follow suit.

The Stardust Effect

Perhaps some of Palo Alto’s stardust has already drifted to Gahanna. The median household income here stands at $87,400—nearly $10,000 more than the U.S. median of $78,171 (as of July 2024), according to Motio Research, an independent data science and economic consulting firm. But what else makes Gahanna so attractive?

Central Location and High Demand

Gahanna’s charm lies in its central location. Situated just east of Columbus, Ohio—a city that recently topped Realtor.com’s Most Popular Markets of 2024 list—it’s also a mere five-minute drive from John Glenn Columbus International Airport. Properties in the 43230 ZIP code are in high demand, attracting over four times as many views per listing from January to June 2024 compared to the U.S. median.

Affordability and Quality of Life

Despite its popularity, Gahanna remains surprisingly affordable. The median list price in the first half of the year was $345,000—11.0% below the metro average. Hannah Jones, Realtor.com’s senior economic research analyst, notes that Gahanna offers home shoppers the amenities and quality-of-life advantages of a larger town without the hefty price tag. In fact, Gahanna’s median list price is nearly 13% below the national median of $439,950.

A Favorable Rental Market

Gahanna’s homeownership rate stands at 59.6%, slightly below the national average. However, the twist lies in the size of homes—smaller than those in the broader Columbus metro area. This suggests that Gahanna’s rental market is favorable, making it an attractive option for investors. In the first quarter of 2024, investors snapped up 19.4% of sales, signaling their confidence in Gahanna’s potential.

In summary, Gahanna’s blend of affordability, strategic location, and tech-driven prospects positions it as a rising star in the real estate landscape. Keep an eye on this small town—it might just be the Midwest’s answer to Silicon Valley. 🌟

Genocide experts warn that India is about to genocide the Shompen people

Who are the Shompen?

The Shompen are an indigenous culture that lives in the Great Nicobar Island, which is nowadays owned by India. The Shompen and their ancestors are believed to have been living in this island for around 10,000 years. Like other tribes in the nearby islands, the Shompen are isolated from the rest of the world, as they chose to be left alone, with the exception of a few members who occasionally take part in exchanges with foreigners and go on quarantine before returning to their tribe. There are between 100 and 400 Shompen people, who are hunter-gatherers and nomadic agricultors and rely on their island's rainforest for survival.

Why is there risk of genocide?

India has announced a huge construction mega-project that will completely change the Great Nicobar Island to turn it into "the Hong Kong of India".

Nowadays, the island has 8,500 inhabitants, and over 95% of its surface is made up of national parks, protected forests and tribal reserve areas. Much of the island is covered by the Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve, described by UNESCO as covering “unique and threatened tropical evergreen forest ecosystems. It is home to very rich ecosystems, including 650 species of angiosperms, ferns, gymnosperms, and bryophytes, among others. In terms of fauna, there are over 1800 species, some of which are endemic to this area. It has one of the best-preserved tropical rain forests in the world.”

The Indian project aims to destroy this natural environment to create an international shipping terminal with the capacity to handle 14.2 million TEUs (unit of cargo capacity), an international airport that will handle a peak hour traffic of 4,000 passengers and that will be used as a joint civilian-military airport under the control of the Indian Navy, a gas and solar power plant, a military base, an industrial park, and townships aimed at bringing in tourism, including commercial, industrial and residential zones as well as other tourism-related activities.

This project means the destruction of the island's pristine rainforests, as it involves cutting down over 852,000 trees and endangers the local fauna such as leatherback turtles, saltwater crocodiles, Nicobar crab-eating macaque and migratory birds. The erosion resulting from deforestation will be huge in this highly-seismic area. Experts also warn about the effects that this project will have on local flora and fauna as a result of pollution from the terminal project, coastal surface runoff, ballasts from ships, physical collisions with ships, coastal construction, oil spills, etc.

The indigenous people are not only affected because their environment and food source will be destroyed. On top of this, the demographic change will be a catastrophe for them. After the creation of this project, the Great Nicobar Island -which now has 8,500 inhabitants- will receive a population of 650,000 settlers. Remember that the Shompen and Nicobarese people who live on this island are isolated, which means they do not have an immune system that can resist outsider illnesses. Academics believe they could die of disease if they come in contact with outsiders (think of the arrival of Europeans to the Americas after Christopher Columbus and the way that common European illnesses were lethal for indigenous Americans with no immunization against them).

And on top of all of this, the project might destroy the environment and the indigenous people just to turn out to be useless and sooner or later be abandoned. The naturalist Uday Mondal explains that “after all the destruction, the financial viability of the project remains questionable as all the construction material will have to be shipped to this remote island and it will have to compete with already well-established ports.” However, this project is important to India because they want to use the island as a military and commercial post to stop China's expansion in the region, since the Nicobar islands are located on one of the world's busiest sea routes.

Last year, 70 former government officials and ambassadors wrote to the Indian president saying the project would “virtually destroy the unique ecology of this island and the habitat of vulnerable tribal groups”. India's response has been to say that the indigenous tribes will be relocated "if needed", but that doesn't solve the problem. As a spokesperson for human rights group Survival International said: “The Shompen are nomadic and have clearly defined territories. Four of their semi-permanent settlements are set to be directly devastated by the project, along with their southern hunting and foraging territories. The Shompen will undoubtedly try to move away from the area destroyed, but there will be little space for them to go. To avoid a genocide, this deadly mega-project must be scrapped.”

On 7 February 2024, 39 scholars from 13 countries published an open letter to the Indian president warning that “If the project goes ahead, even in a limited form, we believe it will be a death sentence for the Shompen, tantamount to the international crime of genocide.”
