Should I be messing with properties in medium or high crime areas?

Many of the wholesale deals and distressed properties that I come across in Columbus, OH are in areas with medium to high crime.

I am hesitant to do anything with these properties because I don't know how to take advantage of them. I am really not interested in dealing with tenants or rentals. 

I will consider wholesaling and rehabbing but as long as I know it will pay off. Also, I'm a new investor and haven't done my first deal yet.

How should I approach these properties to make them profitable without dealing with rentals?

Should I even be considering them?
