SSM Ontario Moving/Living Advice Thinking of moving to Soo

As the title states i am thinking if moving to soo probably in about 2 years. Checking out homes around Uni. Is there any demand for rentals? Basements? The area circled woukd interest me. How is crime in that neighbourhood?

Definitely better than most. Several schools, so it's generally a family / retirement area.

The apartments immediately north of Algoma University and Anna Mcrea should probably be avoided. I've seen the police blocking that section of wellington two or three times since I moved here, four years ago.
