How do you feel about san bernardino?

[Carlos Castillo]

I am looking to make my first investment. I am thinking maybe a rental and I was looking at San Bernardino but this thread makes me a little itchy about it. Crime really does appear to be bad in the area. I am thinking rental rather than flipping. Budget of about 220k. My thinking was that the area around the CSU should be easy to rent. Thinking I can get abou 1.5k for a 4 room house near the University.
