Would you move into a " not so great" part of town.

I've only recently been interested in real estate, and have learned that with an FHA loan I can buy up to a four unit multi-family home with it. But I have to live in it for a minimum of one year. The only multi-family homes in my reagion are located in "bad" to "worse" to "not so bad". My question is. ( not worried about your personal safety) what concerns would you have?

I've found 3, four unit homes 2 bed 1 bath, and I can afford the mortgage and taxes with my normal income, so that's a plus. 

I would love to hear some opinions, and even some suggestions of things i haven't thought of. 

Thanks
