So many times my Property Managers told me stories of tenants behind on rent due to job loss, drug issue, family death, you name it. 

This is a general guideline but it will differ a little by area.A - new construction with amenities in best area of town, often where professionals and wealthy people liveB - good neighborhoods where middle income live, generally house will be older but well maintained and few subsidized properties C - lower income, mostly rentals, a lot of subsidized like section 8, etcD - dangerous, graffiti, drugs, boarded up propertiesYou won’t find all classes in all areas.

@Stephen Neto Drug use, tenants moving people in and out, paying rent when they feel like it, etc.. are all hallmarks of owning rentals in low income areas.

@Jay Hinrichs - SEC 8 will let anyone live in the house, as long as they are on the lease, report their income, and don’t have any felonies or drug convictions.
