What are the best websites to gather economic data for choosing a market?

[Joseph Fenner]

I am looking to create a system which will allow me to analyze and choose markets more efficiently.

I want to have a pool of resources/websites that I follow step by step so for example, 1: Check the housing prices, 2: Check the population, 3: Unemployment rate, etc... and then I will pull this data from the websites that provide it and keep going down the checklist. The problem I am having is I don't know if I am looking at the right data/charts and if its even accurate. I want to make sure I am looking at the right thing when choosing a market.

What websites do you guys use to pull economic data and exactly what charts do you look at?

What does your process look like when choosing markets?

What resources do you guys use that you think I should know about?

What do you look for when choosing markets?

What was your biggest mistake when choosing a market?
