I really like this easy classification of neighbourhoods. Has anyone seen a listing of cities or neighbourhoods with these categories indicated? Or does anyone know of a proxy criteria I can use? Really struggling to find good usable data to evaluate neighborhoods in a target city. It's easy to find the A or A+ areas, but how do you find the solid B? Help please!

@Peter Jetson I would suggest going to some local REIA meetup groups. The local investors, agents and loan officers will know where the best B markets are at in your area. Stereo typically you would look for decent schools, low crime, etc, but this is incredibly location specific. In my area, schools are not necessarily the deciding factor in neighborhood desirability for B class areas as I invest in fairly dense urban areas out side Chicago (Berwyn, Forest Park, etc). This could be totally different in your area which is why local knowledge is key.
