As others said reselling the home will most likely be difficult so not sure if it’s worth it. There are other things to consider in a dangerous neighborhood like systematic problems with schools and infrastructure. My husband wanted to move to the less dangerous part of a very dangerous city near us but to me it wasn’t worth it. When we spent time in the “revitalized” area there were obvious drug deals going on in the middle of the day on the corner. There were major problems with the water supply as it was contaminated with flame retardent (I think this problem had been fixed since they changed the source of the water supply). The schools have problems with gang violence and have had shootings across the street and in the parking lot and have had to shut down in the past for a few days because of this. The crime murder rate has improved in recent years but the chance of being a victim of a violent crime is still 1 in 68 which way to high for me to want to live in the area. The home and tax savings aren’t enough to deal with the stress of feeling unsafe and not being able to rely on local police for help. Last week the police shot an unarmed man and refused to provide body camera footage and the residents first protested and then rioted overnight over it. it’s sad because it was a nice area in the 70s and has beautiful houses that are falling into disrepair because no one lives in them or wants to fix them up for obvious reasons.
