Section 8 Tenant Demand in Different Areas of Los Angeles

A Bee

Esteemed fellow BP readers,

I am considering between purchasing either a 4 unit apartment building in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles or a 6 unit apartment building in the Mid City neighborhood of Los Angeles.  My business plan is to rent out the units to Section 8 tenants as both the areas in which the apartment buildings are located have higher Section 8 rents compared to market rents for those areas.  

In order to understand better each investment opportunity though I wanted to reach out to and see if any readers had an idea or experience as to where I could go or who I may speak to or where I may research to get an idea of the Section 8 tenant rental demand in the two areas I am considering.  Basically, to help answer the question, how much rental demand is there from Section 8 tenants in these areas (or other areas in Los Angeles)

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance :)
