Where to look for best deals?

How do you decide which area to buy in? I live in the Chicago area and have access to dozens of Chicago suburbs, the downtown area neighborhoods, even Wisconsin and Indiana. I'm aware of School district quality tools and looking at quality of area but I am having a hard time deciding which area to focus on for pursuing leads with so many options near me. I plan to manage my first property and would like something somewhat local so I am able to spend time at the property on my first deal. Any advice on where to find information on which areas are growing, have high rent, low vacancy or any other indicators that it will be a great long term investment? Thanks!
