I could agree with 32818, but I do not know of any parts of 32808 that are nice. I also do not study the zip codes extensively. I think that in some parts over there it gets nicer west of Hiawassee and in others not until Apopka-Vineland ish. In most of those instances I think the ZIP is 32818 or 34761 not 32808.

32746 & 32708 finished #4 & #31 in Money Magazine's Best Places to Live. Both are awesome places to live. I live in 32746. I taught for seven years in 32708. You can't go wrong with either.

zipcode 34743
I see by the post that zipcode 34743 is listed in the area of both good and bad. I am out of state and shopping via the internet and have found some homes in this zipcode. My question is are there certain streets areas that are in the bad area opposed to the good area?
thanks

If you have a specific street or neighborhood in mind I could tell you more info about it.

Many zip codes are not all good or bad. Drive the neighborhood. Are the lawns overgrown? Do people take care of the house? People loitering in the middle of the day? Are most of the houses rentals in the neighborhood? There are some weird places like Kirkman Road that look safe but aren't, but usually you can tell. One situation I can think of: sometimes if it's a nice area, but it's right off a major highway exit or road, it will be easy for criminals to drive in and burglarize and then escape quickly.
Get a crime report from the police if your not sure, as somebody here mentioned. If you can, I would fly here for a few days to check out neighborhoods in person.

34743 is both, but leans toward dumpy and undesirable. I would not suggest the area in general. If you provide some street names or subdivisions it may be more helpful. If you are looking at any home in that area less than 200k then it is probably in the dumpy areas. The area is not entirely unsafe, but it is also not desirable.
