I’m going to disagree about multifamily vs single-family. There are plenty of good and bad areas of both multifamily and single-family form.

A few years ago, I got lost in an area of Phoenix. All small single-families. I went to ask for directions and had someone kick the window of my rental car for my trouble. Apparently, the area was known for meth and other interesting drugs, but didn’t look “ghetto” at all.
