That said, there's quite a few homes in that area that have that challenge (no driveway/street parking).

Most cities will have a process to unlock the lots..

I believe it is a larger issue than what we define as the economy, which is mostly measured in corporate profits and Wall Street performance, this is not what the average person perceives.

Most cities do not allow "boarding houses" and/or have a "no brothel" law. 

So that rules out areas like City Heights / Skyline / etc.4) Parking - make sure you scope out the parking situation before you buy.
