20. Houses That Have Been Abandoned

Keep an eye out for any abandoned houses when visiting a neighborhood. Since there is often criminal activity or homeless squatters breaking into these homes, they often increase the city's crime rate. These abandoned properties are unsightly, and they can also depreciate the value of your home.
