House hacking in Fort Lauderdale...where?

[Paul Smythe]

I have a friend who is likely relocating to Fort Lauderdale for a job at the airport, and I have been sharing with him the benefits of house hacking. What are some good areas where he could find a duplex that is close to his work and under 200k?

A few areas I'm looking at are between 95 and Dania Beach. Also around Roosevelt Gardens and Washington park. Are those safe areas that are also good for investment? We would love some more input.
