The problem is how they are managed . If you just dump problem families in them the you will have a problem. It only takes a few troublemakers to pull an area down so they should be aggressively managed You keep a few sink areas for those who cause problems and move them out and into those areas quickly.
Spend a little money on a problem and you'll save yourself a lot in the long run.
