@Hamlet Garcia It sounds like you are talking about a property's relationship to high traffic streets.  In appraisals, you'll often see appraisers make adjustments for lots that are located adjacent to a highway, or major street.  This is because most people don't want to live next to traffic noise mostly but also potential risks of accidents.  Usually then, a location next to a busy road will be a negative factor on the value and potential rents.
