Class B Neighborhoods

[Alan Davidson]

I was listening to a Paula Pant podcast a couple days ago where she talked about Class B neighborhoods.  Is that really a thing or did she make it up?  If it is a thing, how do you find these neighborhoods?

[Ryan Dossey]

That's totally a thing...

Yes, some investors view by class

A= best possible location and high end homes return on investment is not normally a high percent.

B= good schools just not the higher end priced homes usually find a few older homes with people who don't move as often. 

C= usually outskirt of the inner city more crime lower grade schools

D= inner city more rundown a lot of section 8 and government housing.

WARZONE= gangs violence a place people don't want to travel and feel unsafe.

Just scanning your links you would've thought that someone would've already made a Google map of such areas.  Maybe even a crowd sourced map.
