Portland neighborhood in Louisville

I'm looking at potentially investing in properties in the Portland neighborhood. I'm looking for local seasoned investors who can tell me if this neighborhood is showing signs of improving.  Thanks for any insight!

Nope. Don't do it. This area is only for seasoned investors willing to do a lot of renovation work. There are better areas to look in. IMO this is too much work for too little return. 

In addition. the area is surrounded by low income property. The only border that isn't all bad is downtown Louisville. 

Not much employment and the houses are not centrally located in the city. It is nothing like the effort investors put into Germantown except that it is just as old.

Germantown was just outside the Highlands. It was a much better location.
