First MFH house-hack - identifying best value neighborhoods?

Long time listener, first time caller :)

I've just begun the process of looking for my first MFH to house-hack. I'm looking between two neighborhoods - Kingston, NY & Hudson, NY. 

The criteria I am trying to pindown to help inform my selection process is:

Avg MFH Cost, Avg Rental Size, Avg Rent, Avg Vacancy Rate, & County Property Taxes

    I believe I've been able to determine fairly accurate numbers for Vacancy Rate, & County Property Taxes by Googling, but the others are a bit more elusive. I've tried to gather data via a tool called Mashvisor but the platform seems buggy and I'm not sure if I can trust that data.

    Aside from manually scrapping info on Zillow, Realtor.com, etc. (which I've already, happily, spent hours poring over), is there another source of aggregate data I can look to?

    Many thanks in advance.
