Duplex in Minneapolis Midtown Phillips

[Joseph D Fridgen]

Hello all,

Looking for input on the Midtown Phillips neighborhood in Minneapolis.  I am looking at a duplex in the neighborhood near to the hospital but want to get some honest feedback on the neighborhood.  I know it is not the best area but would like to know if things are improving and whether it is a worthy area to invest in for buy and hold strategy.    Any input on the area would be appreciated!!  

Thanks in advance.

Joe
