Seeking Updates on Cleveland Neighborhoods: Is the Waterloo District Still Uncertain?
Hey everyone! I'm just starting out as a real estate investor and I've been learning a ton about the Cleveland, OH area. I was hoping to get some insights on how certain neighborhoods have changed. I've been using this list https://www.biggerpockets.com/... that's about six years old to get a sense of different areas, but I'm curious if it's still up to date. Is the Waterloo district still a bit uncertain?

James updates the neighborhood grading scale every so often, so it's still accurate for the most part, but I do disagree with some of his grades. For example, the one you mentioned, North Collinwood (aka the Waterloo Arts District), is mostly C- to C+, not D+ and lower. I think the area is mostly trending upward too, especially the parts closer to Euclid. Some of the outskirts closer to South Collinwood to the South and Cleveland to the West are to be avoided still though.
