How is everyone feeling about Sharpstown? (Houston, TX)

[Stanley Ezeadi]

I was on my way to check out a neighborhood for a potential property and I happened to see all of the new development in the Sharpstown area surrounding Houston Baptist University. On top of the new commercial developments I am also seeing a lot of newly renovated SFH properties in the 77074/77036 zip code. I know growing up the area was filled with crime but do you guys believe it can maybe make a come back? I'm buying a House Hack pretty soon which I will rent by the room (SFH) but I'm not sure if the area is a decent place to live yet. The commute to work inside the loop is pretty nice. What are your thoughts on the area?
