Investment Property Location

So, I am currently in the process of buying my first duplex to begin my househacking journey. I've been listening to BP podcast and reading the Rental Property Investing book and it has been strongly advised to stay awas from property in areas that are considered "bad" areas. But, with the wave of new build duplexes and single family homes that are popping up in these neighborhoods that are closer to the city and or downtown, would it be a bad to invest in properties like this? Should I buy in some of these areas because of all the new builds being built. Or should I stay away from these areas completely and stick to buying in better areas/ neighborhoods?
