I can tell you that I found the murder statistics from last year and I decided to stay out of the two zip codes with the highest murder rates for last year. 

It's a bit of a risk in posting someone's information here and then 5 years later someone finds the post and calls them after the handyman has been released from prison for an ax murder (bit of an exaggeration but you get the idea).

In this same scenario, I can also imagine my agent wanting to murder me.

The amount of validity is no different than when a teenager is pulled over for going 71 in a 65 and mysteriously the police need to search his BMW.

The flood is a mystery.

To make sure you don't over improve the property, mystery shop the competition to see what they've done to their units to achieve market rent premiums.

Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics:

*29 have been accused of spousal abuse
*7 have been arrested for fraud
*19 have been accused of writ...

Avoid violent crime like murder, assault, home invasions etc.
