Section 8 Apartment complex

I just came across a 12 unit apartment complex that is a section 8 government subsidized. I'm not familiar with the investing side of these - any insights, concerns, that I should have?

Section 8 is a welfare system. Some people rave about it, some people have terrible experiences. Do some research on Section 8 to get an understanding of how it works, possible pitfalls, etc. Then I would really research the area it's located in. I think most people that have problems with Section 8 tenants tend to be in lower-class communities.
