Murfreesboro, TN -- what neighborhoods to focus on / avoid ?

My partner and I are multi-family investors but live in areas where investing is difficult. We are looking to invest some capital into some smaller, stable, multi-unit apartments (5-20 units) with short term rental potential. After a few weeks of market research, we have narrowed our search to three cities with Murfreesboro, TN as a strong contender. 

Any investors/agents/managers in Murfreesboro, TN familiar with the area and willing to share an area overview?

Based on our research, (since 2000) Murfreesboro has shown great population growth (40%+), median household income growth (25%+), crime is on a downward trend, and job growth is above 2% over the past year. It appears to be affordable, however we are unfamiliar with the area and need help identifying the specific neighborhoods to avoid.

Thank you in advance.

@Brandon Magierowski Have you looked into current STR regulations in Murfreesboro and potential regulation? Nashville is very strict and getting stricter; Murfreesboro is on the outskirts of Nashville and it's fairly likely that when/if they introduce regulation (if they haven't already) they'll model it after Nashville. You'll want to be sure that you can flex with any regulations that come down the pike.
