Evaluating an investment area

Hi everyone! I'm new to BP and am looking for some help so I can get started on my first deal. With that said, I was wondering.. What makes an area good to invest in and who/ what is a good resource to get that information? Like do you look at job growth, median income, revitalization projects. Do you get this kind of info from google, certain government officials/departments? If there are any existing posts that are good resources please let me know. Thanks!!
