House Hack in San Bernardino

[Aaron Brill]

Hello BP,

I am set to move to San Bernardino for graduate school in the near future and am toying with the idea of housing hacking during my time there rather than just paying rent. 

The area seems to be inviting in some aspects (high rental demand, decent appreciation) but, as you can find on some old forums on here, there does seem to be a bit of crime issues (or at least this use to be the case). 

I was just hoping familiar with the current standing of the area could put forth their two cents on the matter. 

FYI I’m mainly interested in the areas surrounding CSUSB
