Tool to help out of state investors pick a city

Hi all -- long time lurker, first time posting!

I noticed that many new out-of-state real estate investors have the same question: What city should I buy in?

I think there are a few useful tools to help compare houses once you've picked a city, but only vague rumors or opinions on which city is best to invest in.  So, I put together some data that maybe helpful if you are starting out, or perhaps even looking to choose the next city you buy in:

Right now its just a list of the top 100 US cities by population, along with some useful data about the real estate market in each.

Its a side project for me, so give it a peek, and let me know if you love it/hate it, and most importantly what I can do to make it more useful.
