How to create better neighborhoods

Hey everyone! I was searching the forums and from initial impression have not found much on the topic. I would like to know how you all as investors seek to improve the communities that you invest in if that is a strategy you follow. Obviously, I know there are plenty of factors that go into creating safe neighborhoods but how do you guys participate with the opportunities you have? Turning a once troubled neighborhood into a strong community does tons for the area and the people so I am curious to hear your responses. Thank you!

Quote from @Eliott Elias:

 discontinuing this cycle of crack homes

 It's not a crack house. It's a crack home.

I focus on a small area and create the best product on the market. Doing this brings the best tenants for the class of property. It just keeps building on itself. Better tenants, better rents, better neighborhood, better tenants, better rents,.... My long term goal is to buy the majority of houses on one street so I can rename it after my company.
