Also due to zoning automatically accepted my eldest to a Charter school, which to my perception was for more underprivileged kids.

Appreciate you humor and serious contribution to the perception of OP to communicate at clear truth about what's being said ...

@Mark HerrmannAlso, despite the perception of the “low-income” status of the zones, there are actually some really good areas designated as OZs that really didn’t need the incentive for development.

Any of the following are signs of a war area.Constant sirens and helicopters.Gun fire at night.Shoes thrown over powerlines, indicates drug sales nearby.Seemingly able bodied working age people just hanging out during the day.Large number of liquor stores and check cashing stores. 

When the tenant was placed, they had the option to pay for the monitoring service or not... without monitoring it still works and has sirens etc, but no call center is notified....if the tenants wants monitoring, then they pay it directly......their choice, not my expense.Same with Ring..... if they don't want cloud storage, then they don't pay for it......not my expense
