I believe some parts of the University District, The Block Club pays for private security patrols, thats mostly along the 7 Mile section I'm familiar with that.This property though in the University District meets the characteristics  of the census tracks to the south and west than its own neighborhood, or the more exclusive 7 Mile neighborhoods.Subject Census Track - $38,333 MHHI, 13.4% UE, $447 Median Rent, 31.8 Median Age, 19.9% below povertyUD Census Tract 2 (east of subject, runs along DGC) - $57,419 MHHI, 13.4% UE, $921 Median Rent, 41.9 Median Age, 8.95% below povertyUD Census Tract 3 (North of subject)  - $94,153 MHHI, 13.4% UE, $393 Median Rent, 48.6 Median Age, 3.94% below povertyUD Census Track 4  (North of Curtis) - $67,181 MHHI, 13.4% UE, $940 Median Rent, 47.1 Median Age, .81% below povertyUD Census Track 5 (North of Margareta) - $92,663 MHHI, 13.4% UE, 38.5 Median Age, .45% below the poverty line

I am in the process of selling a 5 acre tract to our parks department for 500k and they want to record our contract but they need my permission to do so.. right now I am balking because I don't want them clouding my title. 

Always know what lien you’re bidding on.A property lien is “a legal claim on a tract of real estate granting the holder a specified amount of money upon the sale of the property.

It gets crowded, but it looks to be at least functional to this point.Ive googled and search on the forums here, (maybe poorly) but cant find any related topics.I've pulled up the tax records and compared the land improvement valuations, but cant seem to digest how to come up with a number.  

You could look on the appraisal tax rolls at the properties surrounding this tract and see what the values are for them and compare .

I think automation of home building technology (many off-site 3D printing players, some on site automation tech for construction of tract homes) will be a real factor in the next 3 to 10 years that will be the primary/only saving grace to actually make housing more affordable (easiest way to meaningfully decrease build costs).

I am doing my best to digest as much knowledge as possible but I usually find myself stumped in most forum and blog posts in regard to acronyms used and different vocabulary, especially when it involves financing.

If you are doing a tract of homes that isn't zoned for residential you may run into rezoning issues that requires city approval with alot of hoops to jump through.  

Note that FNMA HomeReady is income capped by census tract, and if your lender starts putting stuff about census tracts on your preapproval letter then your agent will murder that lender, so it's on you to do that homework for yourself.
