Finding information on a potential market

[Michael Loffredo]

Hello everyone. I'm currently in the midst of finishing a new home construction in PA which will leave my father and I some money to reinvest into other deals. I have been trying to do some research as to where we want to invest, and we've basically narrowed it down to somewhere in Florida. My father owns a house down there that we are able to stay at in order to look at deals and do possible renovations if needed. It just makes things a lot more convenient for us, not to mention FL as a whole just seems like a good market to be in. So basically my question is in the title. I'm looking at different places in FL, but I am still new to this and want to find out population trends of certain areas such as crime rate, population growth, unemployment, etc. Some places I can find with a quick google search but other I cannot. How do you guys analyze a potential market and do you have any resources that you would recommend me to use? Thanks in advance
