How do you do a city analysis?

[Stefano Gasperini]

Hello everyone!

I hope you are having a phenomenal Saturday! I am new to Real Estate Investing, and I am looking to get as much knowledge as I can, so I would genuinely appreciate your help.  A friend told me about BiggerPockets and I think it is great, and the beginner's guide is just fantastic. 

I am from Miami, and I want to start to look for opportunities to invest. I believe that the first step is to learn about the city and get a feel of it. However, I don't have a clear method to do this research. How do you go about analyzing a city or new market?

Thank you very much before hand!
