Hiya newcomer....I just started the map. Right now I have red (avoid), green (good) and yellow (so-so, working class, etc.). I am going to ask people to describe neighborhoods and then perhaps later I can go in and do a better color-coding system.

SUnrico: I'm not sure if Google Maps allows smilies as opposed to colors. I can check into it though :-)

Now, if you could just put a zip code to those areas, I'd know where all these places are!
Anyone know?
