The overall character of the area is definitely a large factor as it will determine the type of tenants living there/demographics: Yoga/Orange Theory studios, Whole Foods, Starbucks, micro breweries, wine and cheese shops, public parks, bike paths, green spaces, public transportation, good schools, nice restaurants, cranes/new construction, low crime rate, high prices all indicate a Class A area whereas boarded up buildings, lots of Payday lenders/check cashing stores, dollar stores, fast food, liquor stores, homeless shelters, army recruiting centers, addiction recovery centers, industrial areas, dumps, shoes hanging from power lines, junked cars lining the streets, high crime, blight, abandoned buildings, urban decay, burnt out buildings, low prices, low rent, etc. would indicate a Class D area.It's really pretty subjective though, I'm not sure there are universally accepted definitions but rather just people's opinions.

I am not sure if you will find a property manager that will do this unless you have a nice property in a desirable location.Rooming houses are more common closer to the university since college kids do not mind living with other random college kids.
