# of units vs. quality of units

Just wanted to hear about people think.

Assuming a similar financial profile and returns and assuming that you would use a 3rd party management company to manage the property, would you rather buy a larger building with more units in a less desirable area?  Or a smaller building with less units in a more desirable area?

Are you looking at something in particular to compare?
I have not seen the existence of an A and a C property in the same market providing the same cash on cash return at the same price with the only difference being # of units
