Advice for a Newby looking to invest in Allentown, PA

[Kevin Reilly]

Hello BP Community,

I am relatively new to real estate investing and am currently looking for my first deal in Allentown, PA. I am not too familiar with the area as I am from NY but I am aware of the benefits of investing in the area. I am just trying to gather some information to learn as much as I can about Allentown. 

Are their parts of the area I should be avoiding? 

I truly appreciate any and all advice/comments.

Thank you!
