Give me one good example of a working-class neighborhood with a high rental percentage that doesn't suffer from high crime. Just one.
I'm not implicating you or claiming you are unfit in any way to live anywhere you please. I was characterizing the seemingly true stereotype of downtrodden communities that are plagued by low levels of home-ownership.
