Aspects Of Location To Avoid?

[beer234]

I'm wondering if you could provide some tips of things that would make for a bad location. Here are a few I thought of. Any other ideas from your experience?

1: Close proximity to a train crossing.
2: Road behind property.
3: Neighborhood with loitering going on.
4: Aggressive or loud neighbor dogs.
5: Messy or unkept neighbor yards or homes.
6: Foreclosed property in view of home.

I'm thinking this list could get incredibly long.
It's pretty subjective, what one thinks is a bad location maybe the ideal place for someone else. Where you live will always depend on how much you can afford.

7: Crack House next door
8: Near Airport
9: Power Lines

Yes, the airport and powerlines were good ones to add.

Even if you don't have kids, the school system will be important when you decide to sell in the future.

Near a bar, trust me on this one. I have a bar 2 doors down and the bar patrons park on my street. Loud a** drunk people all hours of the night yelling on my street. Plus the outside patio faces my house so I hear that too.

On a busy street...

In a cul-de-sac when you don't have kids or want some privacy...

At an intersecton where you will have headlights in your windows every night...

In a subdivision where you have to make dangerous turns onto busy roads during peak travel times...

So close to a school/park where you can hear events and daily activities...

The first house into a developement where every car coming in must ride by your house to get to their's...

I could go on forever!
