City vs state specific laws for tenant/landlord rights

[Sean Lauber]

Hello! I recently moved to the Albany, NY area and I'm looking to invest in the surrounding area. I'm in the process of identifying markets to focus on and I'm looking for cities that are more landlord friendly. I found a Tenant's Rights Guide for NY state online and it does list some NYC specific tenant rights so I figure other cities likely have their own set of laws. I have also heard that Troy (not far from me) is "landlord friendly", however I can't find anything specific online. Any recommendations for tracking down city specific laws? Thank you :)
