A vs B vs C vs D neighborhood
What is an A neighborhood, versus a B neighborhood, versus a C neighborhood, versus a D neighborhood? What are some qualities you can look at to distinguish between them? What are the implications of flipping/renting in each?

Another way is to think about who would live in that neighborhood
A: Doctors, Lawyers, Executives
B: Nurses, salespeople, other white collar
C: Truck Drivers, Retail Workers, Construction, other Blue Collar
D: Welfare/Section 8/Drug dealers.
I think this is a pretty good description for stereotypes, but I think drug dealers can live in C and B class areas too. I have some working class tenants who are CNAs and that's not in a B area. So profession is not always the best descriptor.
