For those of you who are investing in Dayton real estate. Are you investing in properties actually considered to be in the city of Dayton or cities on the outskirts such as West Carrolton, Kettering, Beavercreek, and Huber Heights?? I know most neighborhoods especially on the West side of Dayton are considered to be high in crime therefore a bad investment. If someone has been having success in Dayton investing what neighborhoods are you having success in?

@David Uzhca as @Chris Tabanico said, Dayton and some of the surrounding areas can be street by street as far as "good" vs "bad". You'll have to see which areas meet your goals. I'm in Dayton, Trotwood, Fairborn and other areas. Each different area meets different goals for me. As my goals change over time, I'll change the areas I focus in.

Even areas seen as "high crime" can be a good investment if it meets your need. I have a few properties in those areas, and they cashflow very well. Of course, I don't expect those to appreciate.
For every area, there is an investor whose goals, or even limitations, make that a good area for them. You have to find yours. The areas that meet my goals may or may not be the right areas for you to meet your goals.
