Dr Kerr's New Office Location

Challenge:
Steven Kerr, an English pediatrician has been offered a job working with Baptist Medical Center Beaches in Jacksonville, Florida. He is looking for an area to open an office that is close to the hospital and near the Jacksonville International Airport so that he can fly to see his family in England often. In addition to close proximity to the hospital and airport, Dr Kerr also wants to have a practice in an area that has a high population of 30-39 year olds as they will be the most likely to have children. He also wants to be in a location that has a high income rate so he does not have to worry about receiving payment for services rendered.
