I never trust anyone to do my due diligence, in regards to my business or my personal life, because the asshat real estate agent, govt official or other "expert" normally allow thier own biases to cloud any information. Thus, more idiotic laws.
If you want to understand the "expert", before you enter into a contract with them,along with gathering info such as schools, stores, etc, ask if there are any gun clubs, ranges, how the county votes, the political party of the town mayor, average income, etc, and see what type of answer you get.
Treat it as " intelligence intel". Gotta understand the intelligence quotient of the area.
