I would love to see a survey of the 100 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods as well.

Your wish is my command. This site lists the hoods they consider the worst; however, you can search it for any individual location of your choosing. But there is a paywall for detailed iinto. Probably a good tool for realtors or relocators.

Probably a good tool for realtors or relocators.

As a licensed real estate broker-associate I can confirm that it would be a good tool, if we were permitted to use it. To avoid the appearance of bigotry, we are not allowed to quote population demographics or crime statistics; we have to refer the client to the information sources so they can look for themselves. Even driving a client by the local school at recess or dismissal can bring charges of racism if you can't prove that it is just a service and not a "warning" to the client. The real estate commission sends out testers to ensure compliance. I'm sure I've been "tested" in my 33 years, at least twice in person and possibly several times on the phone.

I had one guy looking for lower end properties in the car to look at a few, and he said "I don't want to be near any niggers". I told him "I'm sorry, sir, we can't do business; I'll take you back to the office to get your car".

A nice couple looking in an upscale shore town were viewing a few high priced homes; as we were driving from one showing to the next, a black kid on a bicycle passed us the other way. The two looked at one another in horror (my perception) and she asked "Is there much of THAT around here?" At first I did not comprehend what "that" was, and she explained. I told them that if I commented on that I could lose my real estate license.
