Targeting a specific area to invest

I have been looking for properties to BRRRR and I feel like I am all over the place. I live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. If anyone is familiar with the area they know there are 7 cities that are all connected which makes it easy to move from city to city.

I don't know if I should narrow my search down to just one nieghborhood, general area of a city, or the whole city. I noticed this week that I am looking at properties in almost all of the cities and neighborhoods. I finally narrowed down the strategy I plan to use to the BRRRR method, but just wanted to know if I should focus on a smaller area when looking at properties.

I'm having the exact same issue! I've been looking into Columbus, Ohio - might move over to Cleveland and the suburbs there. I'm finding it very difficult to do without direct mail marketing.
