Looking for insights on Cincinnati neighborhoods

[Leah C.]

Hi all, just curious to gain some insight from those investors who know Cincinnati well. We are looking to buy our first rental property - a SFR - for around $100k. We would like a B neighborhood and are looking at 3/1 or 3/2 homes in decent school districts. When we visited Cincinnati a few months ago we drove a lot of the neighborhoods and were narrowing in on Delhi (oak hills school district), Springdale and Forest Park. It seems like the schools in Springdale and Forest Park aren't as good as Delhi. We were also looking at Fairfield and Deer Park, but those areas might be a little more expensive. Does anyone have experience with these neighborhoods? Would these neighborhoods be considered B or C rated? Any other insights?

Thanks!
