Looking for any information on Biddeford ME.

Considering buying investment property in Biddeford, so any information on areas of town to buy or stay away from would be appreciated.

Overall thoughts of the town, people, businesses, nightlife or anything at all would be helpful.

Thanks

Are you buying this property sight unseen?


With a few exceptions (UNE, Biddeford Pool, Fortunes Rocks) Biddeford is pretty rough.


There are a couple good restaurants, (Biscuits and Company, Run of the Mill)


There may be a nascent Hipster movement into the city but sadly Biddeford retains all the big city problems like homelessness, drugs, prostitution and crime, in spades.


If you own other similar investment properties and are experienced and confident in your choices go for it. If you are new to the game, man, I would at least go take a look around.

When we first moved to Maine, I told my then-landlord that it would be nice to live in a place without drug dealers and gang-bangers across the street. He laughed and said, "Yeah, in Maine you have to go to Biddeford for that."
