Best Places to Invest in Massachusetts?

Hello Investors, Agents, and Anybody Else in Real Estate, I'm looking at properties I may invest in the Massachusetts area. I notice that much of the properties here in Greatet Boston have a horrible ROI however I'm finding many B and C class properties in the North Shore---like Salem, Lowell, and Everett---that have a decent ROI. I would like to know what cities are ideal to invest in for newbies like me?

@Makhwarand Khan  I feel like a broken record as I give this advice every time, but here goes...

LOOK SOUTH!  Most of Plymouth and Bristol counties are more affordable than metro Boston as well as north and west.

There are often 1% rule properties in Brockton, Taunton, Middleboro and Plymouth.  There are near 2% properties in Fall River and New Bedford.

Virtually nothing inside RT 128 will get close.
