Bad or Good neighborhood

Rikard Lorén

Hi !

I just wanna hear you guys out what you are considering a "bad neighborhood".

So, in this picture it is as follows:

Green Circle = Rental unti/estate
Orange marking = Bad neighborhood in general
Red Circle = a shooting a few months back with automatic weapons.
There's a highway between the orange line and where the green apartment house is, about 500 meters in distance and 2000 meters from where the shooting took place. 

Question: Would you consider that the rental house is in a "safe" area or in a unsafe area ?

The Area where the rental house is, is surrounded by a single family home neighborhood, if it matters.

So, Would you buy a rental unti in the area outside the bad neighborhood ( as in the picture or would you avoid the whole district and look in another one ?
