I thought about using Google maps street view photos for something like that, get all the photos for a city, and then classify how much trash is visible, and also calculate how many people there are and what they're doing.
My idea, at least from living in New York, is that if there are a medium amount of people walking around, and not that many people just sitting there or leaning against a building, and there isn't a ton of trash visible, then it is probably a pretty good neighborhood.
If there is nobody, or a ton of people, or if the people aren't mobile, or if there's a lot of trash, then it is probably not a neighborhood that I would like.
You could probably also use business types for that. Like, I would not want to live in a neighborhood that has a ton of pawn shops or churches in it.
