What are Phoenix best neighborhoods ?

[Benjamin Papet]

Hi, 

I am starting out as an OOS investor and I was wondering what the best neighborhoods in Phoenix, AZ were in terms of low-crime rates and raising a family. I read that Chandler, Arcadia and Paradise Valley were all great neighborhoods in that sense. 

Any other suggestions or insights? 

Thank you!

@Benjamin Papet if you’re looking for cash flow, Casa Grande is a better prospect than the Phoenix area. I live in Gilbert and it is a great area, but I don’t own any rentals in Gilbert because the cash flow is not there. The appreciation may be good, but in reality, I would rather own 3 or 4 properties in Casa Grande than one in Gilbert. I would cash flow much more and those properties accumulatively would appreciate the same or better percentage wise than Gilbert.
