As Realtors, we are commonly asked, ‘Is this a good neighborhood?’ or ‘How’s the crime rate?’ Unfortunately, we can’t legally provide this type of information in accordance with the Fair Housing Act.
Fortunately for buyers, there are many reliable websites that allow you to research crime rates, sex offenders and additional demographics in a particular area. The most common nationally used site is FamilyWatchDog.us. (Be sure to use 85222 as the zip code for Casa Grande due to our recent zip code update.)
For more localized crime rates and information, try Casa Grande’s crime map on the City of Casa Grande’s website.
The Fair Housing Act will not allow real estate professionals to comment on protected classes such as race, color, national origin, religious preferences, sex, familial status or handicaps. For more information on the Fair Housing Act, please visit: HUD.gov
