Rating Neighborhoods
I'm wondering what makes an "A" neighborhood? A "B" neighborhood? Etc. etc.
Is there some form of metric that you are using or is it just based on multiple visits of a neighborhood?
I'm in Sacramento, besides the obvious neighborhoods (like East Sacramento and Curtis Park), in your opinion, what are some examples of an "A" or "B" neighborhood?

Hey Embert,
I think it is a bit subjective. I like to look at school ratings on Zillow, price range as compared to the local median price, cleanliness/condition of properties in the area, ratio of tenants to owners etc. I think an "A" neighborhood is more family oriented with schools rating above 6. I think Elk Grove has some "A" neighborhoods as does some of the newer homes in North Natomas area.
