The fixing it up part wouldn't be a problem since my husband does remodeling. However, the unsafe part would not work since we have 5 children and I have to think about their safety above all else. I would have to know just how bad the neighborhood was though before deciding.

@MsBooklover There have been many years of my life when I've been too poor to even consider those 'good' neighborhoods. One neighborhood I lived in was like graffiti city. It was everywhere, but I never had any trouble living there.

@just4him I am glad it all worked out for you. The area I would be living in that has a lot of crime if I went back to my roots would be too scary. They even kill homeless people, and they do not have money. it is senseless.

Yes I would. I would not turn it down. A blessing I would think. But I donĀ“t have small children to worry about so...I do have a big giant son though haha

@MsBooklover Oh yes indeed. Still something to be scared of.

What do you mean unsafe.....I would probably accept it...live in it and fix it up.
