Low-income Renters
What should I know before renting to low-income before I do it? Is there any guidance I should read? I know it has a lot to do with the screening of tenants before hand. Any advice?

It's not such a big deal to rent to lower income people, just make sure you don't rent to lower class people.
Lower income = not having a lot of money
Lower class = liars, drug users/dealers, questionable morals, lack of respect
There are lower income people that have a high amount of class just as there can be more wealthy people that are lower class.
Lower income and lower class people can come in any color. Just do your screening well and skip the lower class people.
