Selecting a market to work in (factors and data sources)

Hello Investors,

I am looking to expand my marketing and flipping outside of my uber competitive market (Seattle). So, how do you select a market to work in? What kind of factors do you look at and which data sources do you use to get the data? I have considered using population size, unemployment, and average house price as my selection criteria and using citydata.com and trulia.com for data.
